问一道Magoosh的题。

That the psychopharmacological journal had already published the findings of the clinician' s experiment rendered_______any prior misgiving she had regarding the validity of her control group.
extant
moot
fallacious
topical
retroactive

我以前看的一点就是GRE填空中render A B,使得A变成B。A B需要同义。
那为什么这个空不选misgiving同义词？
我记得 continue to, 也是这样用的。
答案是moot.

这就是美国常用语

"this conversation is moot now because the suspect has already been deported"


"FYI, Harvard Law school is putting great emphasis on working experiences. But it may be moot for you since your LSAT & GPA are both above 75 percentile"

这两句话都是实际对话。

这个moot就是没啥意义了。
这句话的意思就是她现在的啥让她之前的啥都没意义了。

第一句话出自 The good wife Season 5 Episode 8

第二句话是一个申请哈佛法学院的申请者在PM里对我说的。
