Question
In the question below, a sentence is given with two
words missing. You are given five options containing a pair of words that can fill the blanks making the sentence contextually correct. Identify the correct choice. Although there is a broad _________ that wetlands can protect coastlines, researchers have not explicitly __________ how and where these benefits translate into dollar values in terms of reduced risks to people and property. 1. Agree, estimated 2. Consensus, measured 3. Understanding, evaluatedSolution
First blank - we need a noun here to be modified by the adjective BROAD. The sentence talks about how there is an agreement that wetlands can protect coastlines. CONSENSUS and UNDERSTANDING will fit here. AGREE is a verb. Second blank - we need a verb here in the past participle form to fit in the present perfect tense construction HAVE + VERB. ESTIMATED, MEASURES and EVALUATED can all fit here, as the sentence talks about how researchers have not yet gauged how the benefits will translate into dollar values.
