Zorluk: OrtaTransitions: Contrast and Concession

To reduce urban heat island effects, municipal planners in Tokyo have extensively promoted the installation of green roofs, which utilize vegetation to absorb sunlight and cool buildings. These green installations require significant initial capital and ongoing irrigation maintenance, making them difficult to implement widely in lower-income districts. ______ reflective cool roofs, which simply use light-colored paint to redirect solar radiation, offer a far more cost-effective alternative that can be rapidly deployed across diverse neighborhoods.

Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?

  1. Conversely,Cevap
  2. B
    Consequently,
  3. C
    Furthermore,
  4. D
    Specifically,

Cevap

Conversely,
The passage establishes a contrast between green roofs, which are expensive and difficult to maintain, and reflective cool roofs, which are a cheap and easily deployed alternative. The transition 'Conversely' correctly signals this contrast.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two parts of the passage.
The first part describes green roofs as expensive and difficult to maintain. The second part introduces reflective cool roofs as a cost-effective and easily deployed alternative.
To determine the appropriate transition, we must understand how the ideas in the passage connect.
2
Identify the logical relation between these two ideas.
The relationship is one of contrast, as the two roofing methods have opposing characteristics (expensive and difficult vs. cost-effective and easy).
Identifying the relationship type helps narrow down the categories of transition words.
3
Evaluate the choices to find the transition that signals contrast.
The transition word 'Conversely' signals contrast. Other choices like 'Consequently' (cause/effect), 'Furthermore' (addition), and 'Specifically' (elaboration) do not fit this relationship.
Selecting the correct transition ensures logical flow and coherence in the passage.
