readingWhich choice completes the text with the most logical transition?
A
Conversely,
B
Overall,
C
Specifically,
D
Subsequently,
Correct Answer: B
Choice B is the best answer. This question tests summary transitions.
- Context clues: The first sentence lists specific factors; the second summarizes the general finding.
- Meaning: Summarizing uses "overall," "in summary," "to sum up."
- Verify: "Overall, the study found" draws a general conclusion from the specific details.
💡 Strategy: When drawing conclusions from details or summarizing, use summary transitions (overall, in summary, in short).
Choice A is incorrect because "Conversely" indicates opposition. Choice C is incorrect because "Specifically" would narrow down, not summarize. Choice D is incorrect because "Subsequently" indicates time sequence.
