Zorluk: KolayAntonym Context Clues

Read the sentence below and use the contrast clue to determine the missing term. Which word best completes the blank?

Cevap:Although the initial radio transmission was muffled and completely inaudible, the backup broadcast came through crystal 【clear】.

Cevap

clear (or audible / distinct)
The sentence begins with the transition word 'Although', establishing a direct contrast between the two clauses. The first transmission is described as 'inaudible' (meaning impossible to hear), so the backup broadcast must be described by its opposite. The word 'clear' accurately completes the contrast and fits the standard phrase 'crystal clear'.

The conjunction 'Although' signals an opposing relationship to the descriptive clue 'inaudible'.

The antonym of 'inaudible' (unable to be heard) in the context of a radio transmission is 'clear' or 'audible'.
Supplying an antonym completes the contrast established between the failed initial transmission and the successful backup broadcast.
