People are naturally concerned about the polluting __________ of energy sources such as oil or coal. Wind farms are the __________ . With their enormous rotating blades, these huge __________ are becoming more commonplace in certain  ___________ of the world. Yet for some people, they are an unwelcome of the landscape.

* Choose the correct answer: 

machines - product - sight - feature - answer - regions - damages - effects

* Answers with Grammar Explanation: 

1- effects : تأثيرات ( noun to describe the consequence )  ✅

- The blank space needs to be filled with "effects" because it correctly completes the sense of the sentence. The sentence is discussing the negative impact or "effects" of energy sources like oil or coal, not their "machines," "product," "sight," "feature," "answer," "regions," or "damages." The word "effects" refers to the results or outcomes, which in this case are polluting, caused by these energy sources.

- This fits the context as it describes the negative impacts of polluting energy sources.

- We need a noun to describe the consequence of polluting energy sources. "Effects" refers to the negative impacts of pollution. 

2- answer : ✅
- Wind farms are presented as a solution or alternative to the polluting energy sources mentioned earlier in the passage.

- The blank space must be filled with "answer" because the context of the sentence implies a solution or an alternative to the polluting effects of energy sources mentioned previously.

3- machines: ✅

- The blank space must be filled with "machines" because it is referring to the wind farms mentioned at the beginning of the sentence and describing them as "huge". None of the other words fit the context. Wind farms are made up of large machines (wind turbines), not products, sights, features, answers, regions, damages, or effects.

- Wind farms consist of large turbines or machines that generate electricity from wind power.

- Wind farms are a type of machine that uses wind to generate electricity.

4- regions : المناطق ✅

- Wind farms are typically situated in specific areas or regions where there is ample wind energy available for harnessing.

- Wind farms are not becoming common everywhere, but in specific areas of the world. "Regions" is the most precise term.

- The blank space must be filled with "regions" because the sentence is referring to specific geographic areas of the world where wind farms are becoming more commonplace. The other words do not fit in the sentence as they do not correctly describe these specified areas.

5- feature : ميزة ✅

- In the sentence you've provided, "feature" is the most appropriate choice to fill in the blank. The word "feature" in this context refers to a prominent or distinctive aspect, quality, or characteristic of a landscape or environment. Since the sentence discusses the physical and visual impact of the "huge machines" (likely wind turbines) on the landscape, "feature" fits well as it conveys the idea of a noticeable part of the scenery.

- Wind farms are a new characteristic of the landscape for some people, and "feature" accurately describes this addition.
