When "Obviously" is used as a key word, what is it signaling according to the text?

  1. Necessity

  2. Conclusion

  3. Mutually Exclusive

  4. Evidence

The correct answer is: Conclusion

In the text, the word "Obviously" serves as a signal for a conclusion. When the word "Obviously" is used, it indicates that the following statement is a logical result or inference drawn from the information presented. It helps point out a clear and straightforward conclusion that can be easily derived from the context. This makes choice B the correct answer. Option A, necessity, is not the correct choice because the word "Obviously" does not necessarily indicate necessity in this context. Option C, mutually exclusive, is not the correct choice because "Obviously" does not suggest that the following statements are mutually exclusive. Option D, evidence, is not the correct choice because "Obviously" does not signal evidence but rather a conclusion or inference.
