Question: 230
20. As the ocean ------ between low and high tides, David contemplated the vast ----- that separates humans and the creatures that live on the coral reefs beneath the water's surface.
- A. endures … gap
- B. fluctuates … chasm
- C. rests … concern
- D. swings … peculiarity
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
B
The first blank must reflect the swaying of low and high tides, while the second blank must mean vast separation, thus requiring fluctuated (swung) and chasm (vast divide) as the answer.
Do one blank at a time. The first blank, which might seem easier, must reflect the swaying of low and high tides, so you can eliminate choices (A) and (C). The second blank must mean vast separation, so you can eliminate choice (D).
