Zorluk: ZorSynonyms and Words Nearest in Meaning

Complete the sentence below by identifying the word nearest in meaning to the contextually required concept.

Cevap:Despite the chairman's initial refusal to compromise, the persistent mediation efforts eventually rendered his stance far more 【pliant】.

Cevap

The correct completion requires a word nearest in meaning to 'yielding', 'flexible', or 'amenable' (such as pliant or tractable), which contrasts directly with an unyielding or refusing stance.
The sentence describes a transition from initial stubbornness to flexibility due to persistent mediation. Therefore, terms meaning flexible, accommodating, or yielding (such as pliant or amenable) accurately complete the meaning.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the context of the sentence
The sentence contrasts an 'initial refusal to compromise' with a transformation brought about by 'persistent mediation efforts'.
Understanding the contrast indicator 'despite' reveals that the target blank must express a willingness to yield or adapt.
2
Determine the required contextual synonym
Words such as 'pliant', 'amenable', or 'yielding' precisely denote flexibility or readiness to yield under influence.
The sentence structure requires an adjective opposite to stubborn or unyielding.
