Zorluk: KolayContrast and Reversal Clues

Complete the sentence below by providing an appropriate word for the blank based on the contrast clue.

Cevap:Although the preliminary report was filled with 【convoluted】 details, the final summary presented a remarkably clear and simple narrative.

Cevap

convoluted (or an equivalent synonym such as complex, intricate, or obscure)
The sentence relies on the contrast signal 'Although' to set up a reversal between the nature of the preliminary report and the final summary. Because the final summary is described as 'remarkably clear and simple', the word completing the blank must express the opposite idea, such as 'convoluted', 'complex', or 'intricate'.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the contrast pivot word in the sentence.
The word 'Although' acts as a contrast signal between the first clause and the main clause.
Contrast signals indicate that the missing word will have an opposing meaning to another descriptor in the sentence.
2
Identify the clue describing the opposing concept.
The final summary is described as 'remarkably clear and simple'.
This establishes the target characteristic that the blank must contrast against.
3
Determine the necessary meaning of the blank.
The blank requires a word that means the opposite of 'clear and simple', such as 'convoluted' or 'complex'.
The contrast structure requires an antonymous relationship to preserve sentence logic.
