Which choice completes the text with the most logical and precise word or phrase?

Cevap:Before the widespread use of synthetic fertilizers, crop rotation was not merely a preferred farming method but a critical strategy for agricultural survival. Farmers understood that cultivating the same crop continuously would exhaust the soil's nutrients. By periodically growing different crops or leaving fields fallow, they could 【replenish】 the nutrients in the soil, thereby ensuring long-term crop yields.

Cevap

replenish (or a similar word meaning to restore or refill)
The correct answer must mean to refill or restore. The passage describes how continuous cultivation exhausts the soil's nutrients, and contrasts this with crop rotation and fallowing. These techniques are used to allow the soil to recover, meaning they return or replace the lost nutrients. Therefore, 'replenish' or 'restore' is the most logical and precise choice.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the context of the sentence containing the blank.
The text explains that cultivating the same crop continuously exhausts the soil's nutrients, while crop rotation or fallowing is used to counter this effect.

2
Determine the required meaning of the missing word.
The word must describe what rotating crops or leaving fields fallow does to the nutrients that were previously exhausted.
The missing word must represent the process of putting back or refilling the depleted nutrients to ensure long-term yields.
3
Select a high-utility academic word that matches this meaning and fits grammatically.
Words like 'replenish' or 'restore' fit both the meaning (to fill up again or make good) and the grammatical structure (following the auxiliary verb 'could').
