訳 · Translation

Living with animals soothes the heart. On the other hand, their care takes both time and money.

正解 · Answer

一方で

解説 · Why

The passage gives an upside, then the downside — a two-sided contrast, so 一方で ("on the other hand").

誤答 · Why the other options are wrong

なぜなら — なぜなら ("because") introduces a reason, not the drawback contrast.

そのうえ — そのうえ ("moreover") would add a similar point, not a contrast.

したがって — したがって ("therefore") marks a conclusion, not a contrast.
