PSAT Writing and Language Question 547: Answer and Explanation

Question: 547

Which of the following provides the most logical and effective ending to this sentence?

• A. NO CHANGE
• B. for technological advantage.
• C. for speedy typing.
• D. to discourage sickness.

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

(C) Consider what the sentence is implying: by using key combinations, it would be much quicker to type than if one had to punch each letter key individually. Choice (C) is most logical and effective. Choices (A) and (B) are logical, but they aren't terribly descriptive and thus not very effective. Choice (D) is completely irrelevant.
