Zorluk: KolaySentence-Level Transitions

The invention of the microscope in the late sixteenth century allowed scientists to view cells for the first time. Therefore, it took nearly two centuries for the cell theory to be fully formulated and accepted by the scientific community.

Which choice best fits the underlined portion to establish a logical relationship between the two sentences?

  1. A
    NO CHANGE
  2. However,Cevap
  3. C
    Furthermore,
  4. D
    For example,

Cevap

The choice stating 'However,' is the correct transition.
The correct transition is the word showing contrast, 'However,'. The passage contrasts the immediate ability to view cells with the long delay (nearly two centuries) in formulating cell theory. 'However,' properly signals this contradiction.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the first sentence (the invention of the microscope allowed viewing of cells) and the second sentence (it took nearly two centuries to formulate cell theory).
The two sentences express contrasting ideas: despite having the technology to view cells, it still took a very long time to develop the formal theory.
Identifying the logical relationship is necessary to choose the correct transition word.
2
Evaluate the transition category needed to connect these sentences.
A transition showing contrast or contradiction is required.
Transitions like 'However' signal that the second statement qualifies or contrasts with the first.
3
Examine the choices to find the one that expresses contrast.
'However,' is the only transition that shows contrast. 'Therefore' shows cause-and-effect, 'Furthermore' shows addition, and 'For example' shows illustration.
Choosing the word that conveys contrast ensures the passage is cohesive and logically sound.
