Complete the passage by supplying a word in the blank that correctly completes the sentence based on the structural contrast clues.
Cevap:Far from being a neutral record of physical geography, the sixteenth-century atlas was a thoroughly 【tendentious】 document, calculated to promote imperial ambitions and subtly manipulate territorial claims.
Cevap
The word filling the blank must contrast directly with 'neutral record' and align with 'calculated to promote imperial ambitions'. Words such as 'tendentious', 'ideological', or 'partisan' correctly complete the sentence.
The introductory structural signal 'Far from being a neutral record' dictates that the missing word must express the opposite of neutrality. Because the text specifies that the atlas was designed to promote imperial goals, a term signifying bias or political motivation—such as 'tendentious', 'ideological', or 'partisan'—properly completes the contrast.
