In 1815, the cataclysmic eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia released massive quantities of volcanic ash and sulfur dioxide into the upper atmosphere, blocking significant amounts of solar radiation from reaching Earth’s surface. _______ global temperatures dropped substantially, culminating in the widespread agricultural failures of the infamous 'Year Without a Summer' in 1816.

Which choice completes the passage with the most logical transition?

  1. Consequently,Cevap
  2. B
    Alternatively,
  3. C
    Furthermore,
  4. D
    Previously,

Cevap

Consequently,
The correct answer is the transition indicating cause and effect. The passage details a clear causal link: the volcanic eruption blocked solar radiation, causing global temperatures to drop. The transition 'Consequently,' logically introduces the effect of the blocked solar radiation.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two sentences.
The first sentence explains that Mount Tambora's eruption blocked solar radiation from reaching Earth. The second sentence states that global temperatures dropped. The temperature drop is a direct result of the blocked solar radiation.
Understanding the logical connection between these sentences is necessary to select the correct transition.
2
Identify the transition type that matches this relationship and evaluate the choices.
A cause-and-effect transition is needed. The transition stating 'Consequently,' indicates this relationship correctly, while other options introduce incorrect relationships such as addition, contrast, or chronological sequence.
This step determines which transition maintains logical coherence.
