Aerogel is composed of up to 99.8 percent air, giving it a delicate, ghost-like appearance. [1] _As a result, it_ is remarkably durable and can withstand significant pressure.

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

  1. A
    NO CHANGE
  2. Nevertheless, itCevap
  3. C
    Furthermore, it
  4. D
    Similarly, it

Cevap

The transition 'Nevertheless, it' is the correct choice because it establishes the necessary contrast between aerogel's delicate appearance and its high durability.
The transition 'Nevertheless, it' correctly signals a contrast between the delicate appearance of aerogel (being made of 99.8 percent air) and its actual high durability, which is unexpected.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two sentences.
The first sentence describes aerogel's delicate, air-like appearance, while the second sentence describes its surprising durability and strength.
Understanding how the two ideas relate is essential for choosing the correct transition.
2
Identify the logical connection required.
The second sentence presents a fact that contrasts with the expectation of fragility set by the first sentence. Thus, a contrast transition is needed.
The correct transition must reflect this contrast.
3
Evaluate the choices to find the contrast transition.
Only 'Nevertheless' functions as a contrast transition. 'As a result' indicates cause-effect, 'Furthermore' indicates addition, and 'Similarly' indicates comparison.
This confirms 'Nevertheless, it' is the correct option.
