Despite the fact that Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has increased substantially in the industrialized West, the levels of human contentment have remained ...........
پاسخ صحیح: گزینهٔ C — static
پاسخ تشریحی
Option 3: static means unchanged, showing little or no movement or development. The contrast introduced by "Despite the fact that" is between GDP, which "has increased substantially", and contentment, which "has remained static". Economic growth has therefore not been accompanied by increased satisfaction.
| Other option | Meaning | Why it fails |
|---|---|---|
| 1. apposite | appropriate or relevant to a situation | Describes suitability, not whether levels have changed. Do not confuse it with "opposite". |
| 2. interwoven | closely connected or intertwined | Would describe how things are linked; the sentence instead contrasts their changes over time. |
| 4. implicit | implied rather than stated openly | Describes how a meaning or assumption is conveyed, not the stability of satisfaction levels. |
The completed sentence is "the levels of human contentment have remained static".
Exam trick: In a sentence beginning with "despite", identify the two opposed trends. A substantial increase on one side can contrast with no change on the other.
