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

A

permanent

B

imaginary

C

obvious

D

temporary

Correct Answer: D

Choice D is the best answer. The passage describes troubles that were ultimately overcome through restructuring. "Temporary" means not permanent, fitting this situation that was resolved.

Choice A is incorrect because "permanent" contradicts restoration. Choice B is incorrect because "imaginary" contradicts real restructuring needs. Choice C is incorrect because "obvious" doesn't address duration.
