Zorluk: Çok zorLiteral Comprehension and Fact Retrieval

Read the passage below carefully:

Sokoto leather tanning, an ancient artisanal tradition in northwestern Nigeria, relies on organic processing agents derived from local flora. Unlike modern industrial tanneries that use trivalent chromium salts, traditional Sokoto tanners soak raw goat hides in aqueous infusions of crushed seeds from the bagaruwa tree (Vachellia nilotica) to achieve vegetable tanning. The dehairing phase uniquely employs a mixture of wood ash and hydrated lime, followed by deliming using fermented millet liquor. Recent chemical analyses reveal that bagaruwa pods contain a high concentration of hydrolysable tannins, which cross-link collagen fibres without generating toxic chemical effluents. However, while raw goat hides are processed locally, the final dyed morocco leather products are traditionally exported untreated to North Africa prior to final finishing.

Statement: According to the passage, Sokoto leather tanners perform deliming by applying an aqueous solution prepared from crushed bagaruwa tree seeds.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False. The passage explicitly states that aqueous infusions of crushed bagaruwa seeds are used to achieve vegetable tanning, while deliming is carried out using fermented millet liquor.
The statement is false because the text explicitly states that aqueous infusions of crushed bagaruwa seeds are used for vegetable tanning, whereas deliming is performed using fermented millet liquor.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the distinct processing stages mentioned in the text.
The passage differentiates between vegetable tanning, dehairing, and deliming.
Literal comprehension requires mapping each specific substance to its stated function.
2
Locate the stated function of 'aqueous infusions of crushed seeds from the bagaruwa tree'.
The passage specifies these infusions are used 'to achieve vegetable tanning'.
Direct textual verification of the bagaruwa seed infusion function.
3
Check the substance explicitly linked to 'deliming'.
The passage explicitly states deliming is performed 'using fermented millet liquor'.
Direct comparison reveals a mismatch between the statement's claim and the literal passage facts.
