ANSWER QUESTION ACCORDING TO THE TEXT ABOVE.
Textual cohesion operates through linguistic mechanisms that articulate the elements of the text and contribute to the construction of meaning by the reader in the English language. Regarding textual cohesion, mark T for the true statements and F for the false statements:
(__) The use of pronouns such as "he", "she", "it", and "they" contributes to referential cohesion by resuming terms mentioned previously in the text.
(__) The integral repetition of nouns, word by word, configures the main mechanism of textual cohesion indicated for academic texts in the English language.
(__) Connectors such as "however", "therefore", and "moreover" establish logical relations between clauses and paragraphs, articulating ideas throughout the written text.
(__) Lexical substitution by synonyms and equivalent expressions compromises the clarity of the exposition and configures a resource to be avoided in contemporary proposals of written text production.
After analysis, choose the alternative that presents the correct sequence of the items above, from top to bottom:
Conjunctions in English establish different relations between clauses, such as addition, contrast, cause, and consequence. Consider the sentence: "She studied hard for the exam, ___ she got a low grade." Choose the alternative that presents the conjunction that appropriately fills the gap, establishing a relation of contrast between the two clauses.
About the previous text, judge the following item.
In the sentence "While complex network behavior is beginning to emerge even without much external stimulation, experts generally agree that current organoids are not conscious, nor close to it" (last paragraph), the connector "While" expresses contrast, and could be correctly replaced with Although.
Choose the connector that best completes the sentence:
"He studied hard for the exam; ___, he did not achieve the expected results."
I. Linkers can create cohesion by making relations explicit, yet coherence also depends on how ideas develop across the paragraph.
II. However commonly signals contrast and, when placed at the start of a clause, it is typically followed by a comma in standard writing.
III. Because tends to introduce reasons, while so tends to introduce results, and swapping them can shift the direction of cause and effect.
IV. Replacing a contrast linker with an addition linker keeps meaning stable when both clauses share the same topic.
V. Cohesion is achieved mainly by increasing the number of linkers, because more connectors reduce ambiguity in any paragraph.
The CORRECT statements are:
"The candidate possessed all the necessary technical qualifications for the executive position; nevertheless, he was not selected by the board of directors due to a perceived lack of cultural fit."
The correlative structure that ensures syntactic parallelism and semantic coordination between equivalent noun phrases is:
The discourse marker “despite” is strategically employed to:
