Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The task asks you to write ONE WORD from the text to complete the sentence: 'They in paragraph 3 refers to [blank].' Since there are no answer options provided for this short answer question, we focus on how to determine the referent.
First, locate paragraph 3 in the text and identify the pronoun 'They' used there. Look for a noun phrase earlier in the passage that matches in number (plural) and makes sense as the antecedent for 'They'.
Next, check potential antecedents by scanning for multiple plural nouns mentioned prior to or in the same context as the pronoun. The most likely antecedent is the most recently mentioned plural noun that semantically fits the action or description tied to 'They'.
Then verify agreement and coherence: the pronoun should agree in number with its antecedent and should logically refer to that group or entity, not to a single person or an unrelated concept.
In this item, the logic of the passage points to a plural group that has been repeatedly discussed and is consumable as a collective entity in paragraph 3. Therefore, the word that completes the sentence is the plural noun that names that group.
Final check: ensure the chosen word is indeed a single noun in plural form that represents the group described, and that substituting it for the pronoun yields a coherent, correct reference within the sentence. Based on the provided answer, the intended referent is 'meetings'.
