Tân TiếnA. In fact

Correct.

Actually / In fact / As a sign of respect, the loser congratulates his successor (Successor is the wrong word. A successor is someone who takes over a business or account after the owner dies.) opponent and shakes hands with him.

Tân Tiến I want to know if B is interchangeable in the sentence?

No, it is not.

Tân TiếnPlease tell me the reason.

Because "in addition" would be a second remark about what happens in a tennis match.

When two players play a tennis match, the loser doesn't hold / bear cherish (Cherish is the wrong word. It means "to love") any grudge against the winner. In addition, both players invite the umpire for drinks and the loser pays for the first round.

On the site "englishgrammarhere.com", there are 2 sentences as follows:
1. I cannot come with you, I have to go to work. In addition, there is someone I need to see at 2 p.m., sorry.
2. You are really sad right now. In addition, the people around you frustrated you. Don't have a decision right now, please.

My question is : Can I use "in fact" instead?
Thank you.

Tân Tiến1. I cannot come with you. I have to go to work. In addition, there is someone I need to see at 2 p.m. Sorry.

"In fact" or "Besides" would be better than "In addition", so yes, you can use "In fact".

Tân Tiến2. You are really sad right now. In addition, the people around you frustrated you. Please don't have make a decision right now. , please.

The sentence with "In addition" is not at all natural.

Supposing it were "In addition, you are frustrated", here "In fact" does not work well, but "Besides" would work better than "In addition".

I don't recommend that you continue to use this site to learn English. It contains quite a few sentences that are not natural. It seems to be written by non-natives.

I concur with CJ.

I went to their PDF tab, and the English is terribly awkward and unnatural. They make many errors in word usage, as you can see from my corrections.
