Explanation for Question 29 From the Writing Section on the 2019 October Sat

Now question number 29, our best answer's going to be D are likely to 2 flood. And that's because D is the most concise and the least repetitive. 3 If we look at answer twice a, it says among those that should've been 4 surveyed are likely to flood, right? 5 And so we already know that it was Shukman who was doing the surveying 6 and the combining. So we don't really need to repeat his name here, 7 which is why a is repetitive. Now B says have a good chance and 8 probably will. Right. And both of those mean the same thing. 9 So because we have two phrases that mean the same thing B is repetitive, 10 and we never want to pick a repetitive answer on the sat or on 11 the act as well. And then finally C says zones that are likely 12 to see flooding happen, right? 13 So we're saying zones here. 14 And then we already know that, um, Schiffman is combining, 15 you know, floodplain boundaries and areas, 16 right? So we see, we say zones, we say areas, 17 we say boundaries. Those are all the same thing. So C is repetitive. 18 Now D D has the same message, 19 right? We're saying that things are probably going to flood, 20 but we do it with no repetition. We haven't repeated the zones or the 21 areas we haven't repeated what it means to be likely. 22 And so with that in mind, our best answer, because it's the least repetitive 23 and the most straightforward is the.
