Refer to the underlined portion marked [1] in the passage. Which of the following choices most effectively establishes the logical relationship between the two sentences?

  2. B

  3. C
    For instance,
  4. D
    Furthermore,

Cevap

The correct choice is 'NO CHANGE', which retains the transition 'Consequently,' to establish the proper cause-and-effect relationship.
The transition 'Consequently' correctly establishes a cause-and-effect relationship because the second sentence describes a direct result of the first: finding the beverage refreshing led the emperor to order its cultivation.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Read the two sentences to identify the relationship between them.
The first sentence states the emperor found the brew refreshing, and the second sentence states he ordered the plant to be cultivated.
Transitions must match the logical flow between ideas.
2
Determine the type of relationship.
Ordering cultivation is a direct result of finding the brew refreshing, meaning the relationship is cause-and-effect.
Cause-and-effect relationships require transition words like 'consequently' or 'therefore'.
3
Compare the options against this relationship.
Only 'NO CHANGE' (Consequently,) correctly shows cause-and-effect, while other choices show contrast, example, or addition.
Selecting the word that accurately represents the logical connection.
