¿Cómo diría “La visibilidad está mejorando”?In IMO SMCP, how do you say “La visibilidad está mejorando / aumentando”?
Show the answer
Correct answer: b) Visibility is increasing.
Why it is correct
To avoid ambiguity, IMO SMCP section A1/3.1.2 (Visibility) never uses 'improve/worsen' for visibility, using only 'increase' (mejorar/aumentar) and 'decrease' (empeorar/disminuir): 'Visibility is increasing'.
Why the others are not
- a) Although common in everyday English, the SMCP specifically prescribes 'Visibility is increasing' instead of 'improving'.
- c) 'Decreasing' means diminishing / getting worse.
- d) Not standard SMCP phrasing.
How to work it out in the exam
- La visibilidad está mejorando/aumentando (SMCP A1/3.1.2): 'Visibility is increasing'.
