The increase in use of electricity and oil as well as the as the expectation that dependency on foreign oil will (blank)over the next ten years has lead to the restructuring of current energy policies
A)double
B)triple
C)decrease
D)stay the same
I think it’s B am I right
So ur saying A
To determine the correct answer to this question, we need to analyze the given information.
The sentence states that there is an increase in the use of electricity and oil, as well as an expectation of future dependency on foreign oil. This leads to the "restructuring of current energy policies."
From this context, we can infer that the expected dependency on foreign oil will have an impact on the energy policies.
Since the current energy policies are being restructured, it indicates a change resulting from the increasing use of electricity and oil, as well as the expectation of future dependency on foreign oil.
Therefore, the correct answer is not option D, "stay the same."
Considering that there is an increase in the use of electricity and oil, it is unlikely for the dependency on foreign oil to "decrease" (option C).
While we don't have specific data about the rates of increase, it is more rational to assume that the increase is not drastic enough to "triple" (option B) the dependency.
Thus, the most reasonable option is A) "double," indicating that the dependency on foreign oil is expected to increase twofold over the next ten years.
no idea. What did your reading assignment say?
Different analyses assume different things.
I must say, however, that I find it unlikely that oil imports will triple in ten years.
