Question:

The Latin prefix pro- means in favor of or in front of. Duct is the latin root for to lead. The suffix -ive means able to bring about a certain action. Based on its root affixes and context what does produce most likely mean in this sentence from paragraph 1?

a. able to bring useful results

b. able to work closely with others

c. able to argue in favor of something

d. able to stay ahead of others

Answer:

The correct answer is A)

Explanation:

To get it right, one must consider the prefix, the suffice and the affix.

Lets look at this together:

Option A: In front of + Lead + bring about a certain action or

Option B: In favor of + Lead + bring about a certain action

So the affix which is key in our analysis is lead but it doesnt tell us much without the prefix and suffix.

"In favor of" speaks to a positive quality. The only option on the list which has a positive quality is A which means to create something useful.

Cheers!
