Hi, I am from Argentina and I have a question:

Which word should I use from those two in brackets?

A financial crisis was (justified/held) as scaremongering.

The balance of nature is (disordered/disturbed).

A good education is the (baseline/groundwork) for a good job.

Thanks for your help!

Hi. I am from Argentina and I have a question. Which word should I use from of those the two in brackets?

1. A financial crisis was (justified/held) as scaremongering.
2. The balance of nature is (disordered/disturbed).
3. A good education is the (baseline/groundwork) for a good job.

Thanks for your help! Unnecessary. Thank us after we help you, by adding the "Thanks" icon to any post you find helpful.

Welcome to the forum. Please note my changes and comments above.

1. I don't think either of them work.
2. I'd use "disturbed". However, I'd use "has/had been", not "is".
3. I don't think either of them work.

Where did you find those sentences?

A financial crisis could be considered scaremongering. However, it wouldn't make any sense to do so.

As for the third one, I can see somebody saying that. (Take your pick.) However, you could probably find a better word to go there.

How about: A good education is the foundation for (finding) a good job.
