which words complete the sentence correctly?
in recent years, engineers have invented a ____ capable of ____ offensive language from live television feeds.
○ censor, sensing
○ sensor, censoring
○ censor, censoring
○ sensor, sensing

Explanation:

1. First blank: "sensor" is a device that detects/measures signals, which fits the context of engineers inventing a technical device to identify offensive language. "Censor" refers to a person or act of suppressing content, which does not fit here.
2. Second blank: "censoring" is the present participle form of the verb "censor", which correctly follows the preposition "of" to describe the action of removing offensive language.

Answer:

D. sensor, censoring
