Zorluk: OrtaInterpreting Continuation and Causal Structural Signals

The unexpected discovery of a stable catalytic pathway at room temperature did not merely accelerate the synthesis of the target compound; indeed, by eliminating the need for high-pressure autoclaves, the new protocol __________ the elaborate safety precautions that had previously stymied industrial adoption.

Which of the following options, when individually inserted into the blank, best complete the sentence coherently and produce sentences with substantially equivalent meanings?

  1. obviatedCevap
  2. B
    amplified
  3. precludedCevap
  4. D
    codified
  5. E
    augmented
  6. F
    justified

Cevap

The choices 'obviated' and 'precluded' both complete the sentence logically and yield equivalent meanings.
The continuation signal 'indeed' signals an intensification of the initial clause, while the causal clause 'by eliminating the need for high-pressure autoclaves' provides direct evidence that the elaborate safety precautions were no longer required. The words 'obviated' and 'precluded' both mean to render unnecessary or make impossible, fitting the causal logic perfectly and producing equivalent sentence meanings.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze sentence structure and structural transition signals
Identified the continuation signal 'indeed' alongside the causal modifier 'by eliminating the need for high-pressure autoclaves'.
The word 'indeed' intensifies the preceding claim, indicating that the blank must express a positive consequence resulting from the elimination of equipment requirements.
2
Determine the required contextual meaning for the blank
The blank requires a verb meaning 'rendered unnecessary', 'bypassed', or 'prevented the need for'.
Because the autoclave requirement was removed, the elaborate safety precautions associated with high-pressure operation were no longer necessary.
3
Evaluate the option choices to locate a matching synonym pair
Both 'obviated' and 'precluded' mean to render unnecessary or rule out, making them contextually appropriate and semantically equivalent.
Inserting either word produces sentences stating that the new protocol eliminated the need for complex safety measures.
