Cevap

obviate
The correct option is 'obviate'. The passage describes how digital portals are designed to streamline services but fail to eliminate the necessity of physical offices in some communities. 'Obviate' means to render unnecessary or prevent, which perfectly matches the context of digital portals failing to remove the need for physical support.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the context clues in the passage.
The first sentence establishes that digital portals 'have not entirely eliminated the necessity for physical offices.' The second sentence reinforces this by stating that in areas with limited internet, digital tools 'often fail to _______ the need for in-person support.'
The blank must contain a word that means 'eliminate' or 'make unnecessary' to align with the rest of the sentence.
2
Compare the definitions of the options to find the best fit.
The word 'obviate' means to make unnecessary or prevent. 'Delineate' means to describe. 'Substantiate' means to prove. 'Exacerbate' means to make worse.
Only 'obviate' logically indicates that the digital tools fail to render in-person support unnecessary.
