Furthermore (Selanjutnya)
Furthermore is the word that is used when we just want to add
something to the list or give some additional information. The
clause it represents does not necessarily require any
argumentative link or connection to the previous clause.

get good score.

something to the list but introduces added information that
helps emphasize the previous argument of the first sentence.
