[Video] Q28: As used in line 28, "broader" most nearly means more

Explanation for Question 28 From the Reading Section on the 2019 April Sat

For 28, we want to know as used in line 28 broader most nearly 2 means more. So let's go to line 28 3 and find the word without looking at any of the answer choices yet. 4 So here is broader. 5 And now we can read around it to get a little bit of context 6 because this plant no longer requires photosynthetic pigmentation to produce its own energy. 7 It is free to adopt a broader range of possibilities and coloration much like 8 fungi or animals. So some synonyms it's a 9 more thorough range, a more complete range, 10 um, a more wide range. 11 So just more variety is what we have to think here. 12 So now that we have a couple synonyms to help us out, 13 we can then look at the answer choices. 14 We have extensive, obvious tolerant and spacious. 15 And since we were going with more wide range, 16 um, a bigger range, I think extensive would be the best 17 choice here.
