❇️Analysis of the answers:
1. Deficits (n.): here we have a compound noun so we must use a noun in the gap and based on meaning “deficits” is correct.
2. Toward (prep.): before and after the gap nouns are used so we need to use a preposition in the gap and based on meaning “toward” is the correct preposition.
3. Hugely (adv.): after the gap an adjective is used so we must use an adverb in the gap and based on meaning “hugely” is correct.
4. Additional (adj.): “and” has parallel role which means that the words before and after it must have the same grammatical role so we need to use an adjective in the gap and based on meaning “additional” is correct.
5. Potential (n.): before the gap the article “the” is used so we must use a noun in the gap and based on meaning “potential” is correct.
تحلیل :
1. در این قسمت یک ترکیب اسمی داریم پس در جای خالی اسم استفاده میشود و با توجه به معنا کلمه deficits صحیح است.
2. قبل و بعد از جای خالی اسم استفاده شده است پس در جای خالی نیاز است که حرف اضافه استفاده شود و با توجه به معنا کلمه toward حرف اضافه صحیح است.
3. بعد از جای خالی صفت استفاده شده است پس در جای خالی قید استفاده میشود و با توجه به معنا کلمه hugely صحیح است.
4. کلمه and نقش موازی دارد یعنی کلمات قبل و بعد از آن باید نقش دستوری یکسانی داشته باشند پس در جای خالی باید صفت استفاده کرد و براساس معنا کلمه additional صحیح است.
5. قبل از جای خالی حرف تعریف the استفاده شده پس در جای خالی اسم استفاده میشود و با توجه به معنا کلمه potential صحیح است.
1. Deficits (n.): the amount by which something, especially a sum of money, is too small. کمبود، کسر
2. Toward (prep.): in the direction of. بسوی، بطرف
3. Hugely (adv.): very much; to a very great extent. به شدت
4. Additional (adj.): added, extra, or supplementary to what is already present or available. اضافی
5. Potential (n.): latent qualities or abilities that may be developed and lead to future success or usefulness. پتانسیل

✅Analysis:
1. Inhospitable: after “the most” it is more likely for an adjective to be used. Here are the options are adjectives, so by the meaning it can be inferred that "inhospitable" should be used.
بعد از "the most" معمولا از یک صفت استفاده میشود. در اینجا تمامی گزینه های صفت هستند بنابراین با توجه به معنا میتوان تشخیص داد که "inhospitable" کلمه درست است.
2. Were revealed: after “which” a verb can be used. “Fossil plants” is a plural noun so the verb must in plural form too. In addition “fossil plants” is not the subject, so the verb should be in passive form. Moreover, “discovered” is in past form so we can come up with the idea that we need a past form of a verb.
بعد از "which" یک فعل میتواند استفاده شود. "fossil plant" یک اسم جمع است پس فعل هم باید به همان صورت جمع باشد. علاوه بر این "fossil plants" فاعل جمله نیست پس فعل باید به صورت مجهول قرار بگیرد. بعلاوه "discovered" به صورت گذشته ساده است که میتوان نتیجه گرفت که فعل باید به صورت گذشته ساده استفاده شود.
3. Evidence: "Clear" is an adjective to it is likely that a noun be used here. By the verb “provide” it can be inferred that evidence can be used. All the words that are ended with suffix –ence are noun in English language.
کلمه "clear" یک صفت است پس میتوان بعد از آن از نقش دستوری اسم استفاده کرد. با توجه به فعل "provide" میتوان تشخیص داد که "evidence" درست است. تمام کلماتی که به پسوند -ence ختم میشوند اسم هستند.
4. Must: Here all the options are modal verbs. The previous sentence can help us because it is talking about the evidence, so here “must” is the best option because it is stronger than others.
در این سوال تمام گزینه های افعال ناقص یا modal هستند. جمله قبلی میتواند به ما در تشخیص گزینه درست کمک کند برای اینکه در مورد دلیل یا سند و مدرک صحبت میکند پس در اینجا به یک modal قوی نیاز داریم که "must" درست است.
5. Support: Here, of course, a noun is needed. As far as the word “idea” is concerned, the best option is “support”; because we support an idea and none of other options would be suitable for being the answer.
در اینجا از لحاظ گرامری قطعا به ام نیاز است. از آنجایی که کلمه "idea" مد نظر ماست، بهترین گزینه "support" میباشد به دلیل اینکه از ایده حمایت و پشتیبانی میشود.
6: Landmasses: Here, because of the word “other”, we need a plural noun. By the meaning landmasses is correct.
در اینجا به دلیل وجود کلمه "other" ما به یک اسم جمع نیاز داریم که در این صورت یک گزینه حذف میشود و گزینه درست با توجه به معنای درست انتخاب میشود.
7. Bear: in this question all the options are verb, so by the meaning the best option is “bear”. Bear collocates with the word “resemblance”; so a good knowledge of collocations is also needed is answering RWFIB questions.
تمام گزینه ها در این سوال فعل هستند. بهترین گزینه در اینجا کلمه "bear" میباشد چون عبارت "bear a resemblance" یک اصطلاح میباشد در زبان انگلیسی.
8. Insights: here, all the options look the same by the meaning and part of speech (all of them are plural nouns). So, by the preposition “into” we can come up with an idea that “insight” is the best answer. All of other options appear with different prepositions.
در اینجا تمام گزینه ها از لحاظ معنایی و نقش دستوری نزدیک به هم به نظر میرسند، اما فقط یکی از آنها با حرف اضافه "into" می آید که آن هم insight میباشد.
