Which choice completes the text with the most logical and precise word or phrase?

A

revive

B

eliminate

C

ignore

D

study

Correct Answer: A

Choice A is the best answer. The passage describes conservation for species "nearly driven to extinction." "Revive" means to restore to life or activity, fitting this recovery effort.

Choice B is incorrect because "eliminate" would accelerate extinction. Choice C is incorrect because "ignore" contradicts conservation. Choice D is incorrect because "study" is weaker than conservation action.
