In the provided context, 'scrutinize' refers to looking over mechanical components carefully and thoroughly using specialized equipment to detect defects. Therefore, 'inspect' (or 'examine') is the precise synonym that correctly completes the sentence.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the bolded target word and review the surrounding context clues.

The target word is 'scrutinize'. The sentence details an inspector using specialized optical magnifying equipment to check hydraulic connections for hairline stress fractures before issuing safety clearance.

Contextual analysis requires determining the specific action being performed and the precision required by the situation.

2

Determine the meaning of the target word from the contextual indicators.

'Scrutinize' means to examine, inspect, or observe closely and critically with thorough attention to detail.

The mention of optical magnifying tools to detect hairline fractures indicates a detailed, close physical check.

3

Select an accurate synonym that grammatically fits into the blank.

The verb 'inspect' (or 'examine') maintains exact grammatical agreement as a base verb following the adverb 'thoroughly' and preserves the precise meaning of 'scrutinize'.

Replacing the target word with 'inspect' keeps the sentence's meaning and syntax intact.

Which term serves as the most accurate synonym for the word TREPIDATION?

Assurance

Temptation

Apprehension

Excitement

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Apprehension

Cevap

The term apprehension is the synonym that best matches trepidation.

The word trepidation refers to a feeling of fear, agitation, or dread regarding an impending event. The term apprehension carries the identical meaning of fearful anticipation or foreboding.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define the target word

Trepidation denotes a state of alarm, dread, or nervous uncertainty about future occurrences.

Establishing the core semantic meaning is necessary to identify the equivalent vocabulary term.

2

Evaluate the answer choices against the target definition

Apprehension directly captures the sense of nervous dread and fear, whereas assurance is an antonym, temptation is a lookalike distractor, and excitement carries a mismatched positive connotation.

Eliminating antonyms, phonetically similar terms, and connotation mismatches isolates the exact synonym.

An event coordinator is installing a temporary dance floor in a rectangular banquet room measuring $60\text{ feet}$ long and $45\text{ feet}$ wide. A fixed rectangular dining section that measures $30\text{ feet}$ by $15\text{ feet}$ will remain uncovered. If the temporary flooring material costs $\$4$ per square yard, what is the total cost of the flooring?

\$480

\$1,000

\$3,000

\$9,000

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $\$1,000$

Cevap

The total cost of the flooring is

\$1,000

.

The correct answer is found by first calculating the net area to be covered in square feet (

2,700 - 450 = 2,250\text{ sq ft}

). Then, this area must be converted to square yards by dividing by

9

(since

1\text{ square yard} = 9\text{ square feet}

), resulting in

250\text{ square yards}

. Finally, multiplying by the rate of

\$4

per square yard yields

\$1,000

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the total area of the banquet room.

60\text{ feet} \times 45\text{ feet} = 2,700\text{ square feet}

To find the maximum possible floor space before accounting for the uncovered section.

2

Calculate the area of the fixed dining section.

30\text{ feet} \times 15\text{ feet} = 450\text{ square feet}

To determine how much space will not receive the temporary flooring.

3

Subtract the uncovered area from the total room area.

2,700 - 450 = 2,250\text{ square feet}

To find the net area that requires the temporary dance floor.

4

Convert the net area from square feet to square yards.

2,250 \div 9 = 250\text{ square yards}

Because

1\text{ square yard} = 9\text{ square feet}

(

3\text{ ft} \times 3\text{ ft}

), and the material is priced per square yard.

5

Calculate the total cost.

250\text{ sq yd} \times \$4/\text{sq yd} = \$1,000

To find the final expense by multiplying the total required square yards by the price per square yard.

Read the professional evaluation excerpt below. Which word best completes the blank to convey an unpleasantly submissive and insincere tone?

Aşağıdaki boşlukları doldurun

While the department head appreciated courteous cooperation from staff members, she criticized the junior associate's behavior as because his excessive, groveling compliments felt manipulative and insincere.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

obsequious (or closely matching derogatory terms such as sycophantic, fawning, or servile)

The correct response ('obsequious', 'sycophantic', or 'fawning') matches the specific negative connotation required by the context. The sentence explicitly contrasts healthy, positive workplace respect ('courteous cooperation') with an extreme, distasteful form of flattery described as 'excessive', 'groveling', and 'insincere'. 'Obsequious' precisely denotes servile obedience and insincere praise, perfectly fitting both the denotation and the critical tone of the passage.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the sentence context and tone contrast markers.

The subordinating conjunction 'While' contrasts an approved behavior ('courteous cooperation') with a criticized behavior characterized by 'excessive, groveling compliments' that feel 'manipulative and insincere'.

Identifying contrast signals reveals whether the required term carries a positive, neutral, or negative evaluative connotation.

2

Determine the denotation and required connotation.

The target word must denote high deference or compliance while carrying a strongly negative, pejorative connotation reflecting false flattery and submissiveness.

Both meaning (flattering/compliant) and tone (disapproving/insincere) must align with the critique in the context.

3

Select the precise vocabulary term matching these constraints.

'Obsequious' (as well as 'sycophantic' or 'fawning') specifically means obedient or attentive to an excessive, servile degree with a distinctly negative tone.

This word satisfies both the denotative requirement of deference and the negative connotation demanded by the context.

Match turbulent to violent, stormy, or disorderly; match vague to unclear, imprecise, or lacking detail; match sluggish to slow-moving, lethargic, or inactive.

Each pair is matched by recognizing the structural contrast marker (Despite, While, Although) and determining the opposite of the provided clue words (calm, explicit, energetic). Thus, turbulent matches 'Violent, stormy, or disorderly', vague matches 'Unclear, imprecise, or lacking detail', and sluggish matches 'Slow-moving, lethargic, or inactive'.

Cevap

The correct order from shortest to longest is Section P (648 ft), Section Q (659 ft), Section R (660 ft), and Section S (661.5 ft).

To accurately compare these mixed measurements, each value must be mathematically converted to a single common unit, such as feet. Converting yields: Section P = 648 feet, Section Q = 659 feet, Section R = 660 feet, and Section S = 661.5 feet.

retroactive

The word 'retroactive' is formed from the Latin prefix 'retro-' (meaning backward or behind), the base root 'act' (meaning to do or drive), and the adjective suffix '-ive' (meaning expressing a tendency or function). In the sentence context, a policy that grants credit for training completed in the prior year applies to events from the past, making 'retroactive' the exact correct term.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the prefix 'retro-', the root 'act', and the suffix '-ive'.

The prefix 'retro-' means backward or behind, 'act' means to do or perform, and '-ive' forms an adjective meaning having the nature or tendency of an action.

The correct answer is found by first ensuring all measurements are in feet. A diameter of

36\text{ inches}

is equal to

3\text{ feet}

, making the radius

1.5\text{ feet}

(or

\frac{3}{2}\text{ feet}

V = \pi r^2 h

, the total volume of soil is

\frac{22}{7} \times \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^2 \times 70 = 495\text{ cubic feet}

. Finally, dividing the total volume by the extraction rate of

11\text{ cubic feet per hour}

gives exactly

45\text{ hours}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the diameter to feet

36\text{ inches} = 3\text{ feet}

Units must be consistent (feet) with the depth and the extraction rate before calculating volume.

2

Determine the radius of the well

r = 1.5\text{ feet}

(or

\frac{3}{2}\text{ feet}

The volume formula requires the radius, which is half of the diameter.

3

Calculate the volume of the cylindrical well

V = \frac{22}{7} \times \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^2 \times 70 = \frac{22}{7} \times \frac{9}{4} \times 70 = 495\text{ cubic feet}

This determines the total amount of soil that needs to be extracted.

calculating

astute

indiscriminate

overzealous

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: astute

Cevap

The word 'astute' is the correct synonym because it matches the denotation of sharp insight while maintaining a positive, complimentary tone.

The word 'astute' denotes having or showing an ability to accurately assess situations and make sound decisions. In addition to matching the core definition of 'discerning', it carries a favorable, appreciative connotation that aligns seamlessly with the commendation described in the sentence.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the contextual meaning and tone of the target word.

The target word 'discerning' means showing good judgment and acute perception; in this context ('was commended for'), it carries a strongly positive and respectful tone.

Understanding both literal definition and emotional coloring is essential for choosing the correct synonym.

2

Eliminate choices that are antonyms or conceptually unrelated.

The choice 'indiscriminate' is discarded as an antonym (unselective/careless), and 'overzealous' is discarded for describing excessive enthusiasm rather than analytical sharpness.

Synonyms must first share the core denotation of the target word before evaluating tone nuances.

3

Evaluate the connotation of the remaining near-synonyms.

Between 'astute' and 'calculating', both denote sharp mental assessment, but 'calculating' implies devious, cold, or selfish scheming, whereas 'astute' conveys admirable, perceptive competence.

The sentence praises the officer's performance, requiring a synonym with an affirming, positive connotation.
