PSAT Writing and Language Question 653: Answer and Explanation
Question: 653
- A. NO CHANGE
- B. despite public outcries,
- C. even though there were complaints by members of the public,
- D. OMIT the underlined portion.
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
(B) Choices (A), (B), and (C) all communicate the same message, but notice that choice (B) does it much more concisely without sacrificing meaning. Choice (D), "omit," leads to a grammatically correct sentence, but it ultimately deletes information that is relevant and productive.
