Zorluk: OrtaSentence-Level Transitions

Passage

Unlike standard Western paper, which is often made from acidic wood pulp that degrades over time, Japanese *washi* paper is crafted from the long, strong inner bark fibers of native plants like kozo and gampi. Consequently, this paper is exceptionally durable and resistant to tearing, making it an ideal tool for book conservationists.

Which choice provides the most logical transition from the preceding sentence?

  1. NO CHANGECevap
  2. B
    Nevertheless,
  3. C
    Similarly,
  4. D
    For instance,

Cevap

NO CHANGE (which keeps 'Consequently,')
The transition 'Consequently' is correct because it logically connects the cause (the long, strong bark fibers) to the effect (the paper's exceptional durability and resistance to tearing).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two sentences.
The first sentence explains that Japanese washi paper is made from long, strong plant fibers. The second sentence states that this paper is exceptionally durable and resistant to tearing.
Understanding the logical connection between the ideas is essential to choosing the correct transition.
2
Determine the type of relationship.
The strength and length of the fibers (cause) directly result in the paper's durability (effect). Thus, a cause-and-effect transition is required.
The transition must accurately reflect this relationship.
3
Evaluate the choices against the identified relationship.
'Consequently' is a cause-and-effect transition, making it the most logical fit. 'Nevertheless' (contrast), 'Similarly' (comparison), and 'For instance' (illustration) do not fit.
This confirms the correct transition word.
