Zorluk: KolayTransitions: Contrast and Concession

In the mid-nineteenth century, early portrait photographers relied almost exclusively on daguerreotypes, which required subjects to remain completely still for several minutes to prevent blurry images. ________, the introduction of the wet collodion process in 1851 reduced exposure times to just a few seconds, transforming portraiture into a much more accessible medium for the general public.

Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?

  1. HoweverCevap
  2. B
    Furthermore
  3. C
    Consequently
  4. D
    Specifically

Cevap

However
The transition 'However' is correct because the passage contrasts the long exposure times of early daguerreotypes (minutes) with the much shorter exposure times of the wet collodion process (seconds).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two sentences.
The first sentence describes daguerreotypes requiring subjects to stand still for several minutes. The second sentence describes the wet collodion process reducing this time to just a few seconds.
Understanding the logical connection between the ideas is necessary to choose the correct transition.
2
Identify the type of logical connection.
The transition must signal a contrast or concession because the two sentences compare a slow, restrictive process with a fast, accessible one.
This determines which class of transition words is appropriate.
3
Evaluate the choices to find the contrast transition.
The transition signaling contrast is the most appropriate option, while the other choices represent addition, cause-and-effect, and elaboration.
Selecting the option that matches the identified logical connection yields the correct answer.
