Hi Gabi,

You should look through the sentences in the whole test to fully grasp the meaning, as the test-questions are closely interrelated. But let me rephrase the given example in a most common way: You talk sense( to repair the wall as it has a huge crack) but anyway I can ultimately repair it.
