Cevap

The pair 'comprehensive ... cursory' best completes the blanks.
The first sentence indicates that the initial report detailed every finding meticulously, making 'comprehensive' appropriate for the first blank. The second sentence begins with the contrast word 'However' and notes that the subsequent monograph offered only a brief summary, requiring 'cursory' for the second blank.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the context clues for Blank (i).
The phrase 'detailing every preliminary finding with meticulous care' indicates that the report was thorough and complete, pointing toward a word like 'comprehensive'.
Elaboration clues directly define the positive quality of the initial report.
2
Analyze the structural shift and context clues for Blank (ii).
The contrast transition 'However' combined with 'offering only a brief summary' requires a word meaning brief or superficial, such as 'cursory'.
Cross-sentence contextual coherence requires matching the reversal signaled by 'However'.
3
Evaluate the option pairs against both blanks.
The combination of 'comprehensive' for Blank (i) and 'cursory' for Blank (ii) preserves both local and cross-sentence logical integrity.
Only this pair fulfills both the descriptive clause of sentence one and the contrast introduced in sentence two.
