can we use “Time Contrast Strategy” in this question ?
as Early and Later is acting like a contrast so if the first blank is +ve then the second one is -ve or vice-versa. is this a correct approach ?
But do you see anything that indicates the sentence is pointing out a contrast between them? Just because there are two time periods mentioned doesn’t automatically mean they are being contrasted.
Using Maths strategy there is no contrast because there is no contrasting phrase or word.
so do you mean i have to use more than one strategy to corroborate that i am on a right path ?
Well, the name of the strategy is “time contrast”, so yes, you will need to be attuned to contrast cues. You’re not really using math strategy so much as checking for contrast words to determine if time contrast is an appropriate strategy to use. You will use the same list of words for math strategy and time contrast, but what you do with that information will differ.
Still, if you prefer to think of the strategies in terms of their similarities, you can consider them related. There’s not really a right/wrong way to think of it as long as you are getting the correct answers reliably.
