What does 'Impedir' imply in terms of action?

To include
To allow
To stop/prevent
To demonstrate

The correct answer is: To stop/prevent

The term 'Impedir' in Spanish directly translates to 'to stop' or 'to prevent' in English. It implies taking action to obstruct something from happening. When you impede something, you create an obstacle that hinders its progress or occurrence. This aligns perfectly with the concept of prevention, as it focuses on the act of halting an event or action before it takes place. The other options do not capture the essence of 'impedir.' For example, including or allowing something involves enabling or facilitating it, which is the opposite of preventing. Demonstrating, on the other hand, refers to showing or proving something, which also contradicts the idea of hindrance embodied in 'impedir.' Thus, the selection of 'to stop/prevent' is correct based on the meaning and implications of the verb.
