Zorluk: OrtaSupporting Claims with Evidence and Details

During World War II, Bletchley Park served as the central site for British codebreaking, where cryptanalysts worked tirelessly to decipher enemy communications. The intelligence produced here, codenamed Ultra, provided crucial support to the Allied war effort by revealing enemy troop movements. The codebreakers achieved success not through a single breakthrough, but through a combination of mathematical theory, technological innovation, and sheer persistence. To assist in this massive effort, the British government recruited individuals from a wide variety of intellectual backgrounds.

Given that all the choices are true, which one provides the most specific, concrete details to support the claim that the recruited individuals came from diverse intellectual backgrounds?

  1. These recruits included not only mathematicians and cryptographers but also chess champions, linguists, and classicists.Cevap
  2. B
    These recruits were highly intelligent people who were very good at solving difficult puzzles.
  3. C
    Because the government wanted to find individuals who were talented in many different fields.
  4. D
    Bletchley Park was located in Buckinghamshire, which made travel from Oxford and Cambridge relatively convenient.

Cevap

The correct answer is the option that lists specific professions such as mathematicians, cryptographers, chess champions, linguists, and classicists, as it provides concrete examples that support the claim of diverse intellectual backgrounds.
The option that lists specific professions and fields of study provides concrete examples of the recruits' diverse intellectual backgrounds. This directly supports the sentence's claim with precise details rather than vague generalizations.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the main claim to be supported.
The claim in the passage is that the British government recruited individuals from a 'wide variety of intellectual backgrounds.'
Knowing the specific claim helps determine which details are relevant and supportive.
2
Evaluate each option for grammatical correctness and relevance to the claim.
One option is a grammatically incorrect dependent clause fragment. Another option is irrelevant to the recruits' backgrounds, focusing instead on location. Another option is too vague.
This filters out grammatically incorrect options and those that do not address the rhetorical goal.
3
Select the option that offers the most specific, concrete details demonstrating diverse intellectual fields.
The option listing mathematicians, cryptographers, chess champions, linguists, and classicists is grammatically correct and provides specific, diverse examples.
Concrete details are more effective at supporting a claim than vague generalizations.
