Question

Select the correct text in the passage.
Which text helps clarify the meaning of the word wedging?
Before the Kiln

In pottery, there is a lot of work to do before a cup or a vase is ready to be fired in the kiln. First, a potter will start by kneading the clay. Kneading clay is basically the same as kneading dough and helps to make sure the moisture is spread evenly across the clay. Potters also use a technique called wedging. The repetitive action of throwing a ball of clay onto a work station gets the clay ready for sculpting. The effects of wedging are similar to the effects of kneading. Once the clay is ready, the potter will begin to sculpt.

Answer 1

"The repetitive action of throwing a ball of clay onto a work station gets the clay ready for sculpting."

This sentence explains what wedging involves (the repeated throwing motion) and thus clarifies its meaning.
