Choices

6

Choice-A

Choice A is incorrect. "Similarly" (meaning in the same way) signals addition or comparison, but the idea of being "difficult" is opposite to being "rewarding"—a contrast is needed. "while" is a subordinating conjunction, not a strong transition, and doesn’t clearly signal the role of the second clause as supporting examples.

Wrong Similarly, while

7

Choice-B

Choice B is incorrect. "In contrast" signals a strong opposition, which is acceptable, but slightly formal for this context. More importantly, "since" (meaning because) signals cause and effect, implying travel/career prospects are the reason it is rewarding. However, travel/career prospects are specific examples of how it is rewarding, not the fundamental cause of the reward.

Wrong In contrast, since

8

Choice-C

Choice C is incorrect. "Likewise" (meaning in the same way) signals addition, which is wrong; a contrast is needed. "Nevertheless" (meaning in spite of that) signals a contrast, but the second clause is an example, not a contrast to the first.

Wrong Likewise, Nevertheless

9

Choice-D

Choice D is correct. "However" properly signals a mild contrast or shift between the negative aspect (difficult) and the positive aspect (rewarding). "For instance" clearly signals that the following details ("opens up opportunities for travel and enhances career prospects") are specific examples or illustrations of how it is "incredibly rewarding.
