Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Gaining a strategic advantage over a rival by taking action before them

Cevap

Gaining a strategic advantage over a rival by taking action before them
The correct answer accurately defines 'stealing a march on' as securing a secret or premature advantage over a competitor before they are able to react. In the context of the sentence, launching the platform ahead of the competitor illustrates this early tactical advantage.

Contextual clues like 'clandestine preparation' and 'launched... days before' indicate an opportunistic, early action.
2
Determine the figurative meaning of the idiom 'steal a march on'
The idiom historically comes from military maneuvers where one force moves secretly ahead of another to gain a tactical position; hence, it means gaining an advantage by acting unexpectedly or early.
Idioms cannot be interpreted literally by individual words ('steal', 'march').
3
Match the figurative definition with the options
The option describing 'gaining a strategic advantage over a rival by taking action before them' aligns perfectly with the figurative meaning.
It accurately reflects both the figurative sense and the sentence context.

Cevap: stave off

Cevap

The phrasal verb 'stave off' correctly completes the sentence because it specifically means to prevent, delay, or ward off an impending negative event through deliberate action.
The expression 'stave off' is the correct phrasal verb defined as holding off, delaying, or deterring an imminent unwanted event, such as a strike or financial crisis. It fits both the grammatical structure and the semantic requirement of the context.

Evaluate the idiomatic particle and meaning of each phrasal verb option
'Stave off' means to delay or prevent something harmful. 'Ward away' and 'fend away' are non-standard combinations (the standard forms use the particle 'off'). 'Shrug off' means to disregard, which contradicts taking proactive measures like making concessions.
Phrasal verbs require both correct particle usage and exact contextual fit.
3
Select the correct option based on standard English usage
'stave off' is selected as the only option that is grammatically standard and contextually appropriate.
