MCQ - 146-11848

Question:

The study's ____ conclusion is that during the first half of the 20th Century improved standards of personal hygiene reduced the risk of an individual's contracting poliomyelitis, yet tended to make the disease more lethal to communities.

  1. exciting
  2. paradoxical
  3. unwarranted
  4. paradoxical
  5. anomalous

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

Any of the words taken individually might make a logical sentence. However, since the conclusion is surprising in that the risk to the individual reduces as the risk to the community increases, the work �paradoxical� is a good choice. �Anomalous� gives a similar suggestion of the unexpectedness of the results, although �anomalous� is most often defined as �not fitting into the expected pattern�.
