[Video] Q6: As used in line 35, "convey" most nearly means

Explanation for Question 6 From the Reading Section on the 2021 March Sat

Question number six as he is in line 35 convey most nearly means what? 2 So let's take a look back at the original context where this was actually 3 used. 4 So 1 35 is up here. 5 There is no audience to see you. She said one day in Japanese, 6 as I gestured expansively to convey my anguish at the death of one of 7 my fellow soldiers. So convey here means 8 to kind of, to illustrate, to, 9 to demonstrate, um, the narrator is saying that they gestured 10 in order to get something across, 11 they wanted to express their anguish. So any kind of sending them with that, 12 meaning express get across illustrate, 13 demonstrate something like that is going to be a good fit here for the 14 word convey. So when we look at our answer choices, 15 choice, ISS communicate, and that is exactly correct. 16 We're trying to make a point clear. 17 That's what we mean with convey or the answer choices. 18 Don't really relate to this context quite as well, 19 choice B conduct. Um, it wouldn't make sense to conduct, 20 um, a, a understanding, 21 um, choicy guide. We're not trying to really guide we're more trying to express. 22 So C is out and they experience is also incorrect. 23 We're more trying to communicate that express experience rather than, 24 um, actually experience it ourselves as the person on the receiving end. 25 So this actor is really not experiencing it. 26 The actor is trying to help the audience experience it. 27 So D is also incorrect and ASR, 28 correct choice for number six.
