Explanation for Question 5 From the Writing Section on the 2018 April Sat

Hey guys. So question five is going to be a redundancy question. 2 I mean, we're trying to eliminate redundant language and redundant. 3 It's just when something repeats itself. So this says they met regularly at the 4 flour mill and bankers home, where they met to discuss the Bates and astronomy. 5 So what this is telling us in these lines is that these two people, 6 they said they met at Becker's home, 7 uh, be home. 8 And that's what it's trying to tell us that what's the problem with this 9 right here. Option a, is that it's it says they met regularly and it 10 then tells us again where they met to do this. 11 We already know that their meetings, we don't have to say they're meeting twice. 12 And in fact, let's find the answer to what's that isn't repeating itself. 13 B says they met at Banneker is home meeting to do this. 14 And this has been a first home meeting. Again, 15 it's saying meeting, even though already previously in the sentence, 16 it says the word met. So C is the only option that cuts out 17 the redundant language of repeating the fact that they met and just tells us 18 that they met at banker's home to discuss this.
