Explanation for Question 1 From the Writing Section on the 2020 March Sat

So question one, the correct answer is going to be B and we will 2 look at the sentence. We see that it says at the end of the 3 reconstruction era that followed the American civil war, 4 tens of thousands of black, former slaves left the Southern United States for 5 blank, social economic opportunity in Western states and territories. 6 Right? So the reason that feeds the correct answer is because B is a 7 common phrase in the English language, right? So it's a correct common phrase. 8 And it's also the shortest, the most concise of all the other answer choices. 9 If we look at a, it says for finding, 10 right, and if we compare a to B for finding is not something that 11 we commonly say in English language. So AI is simply not correct because 12 it's not, what's normally said there's not really an S a specific grammar rule. 13 That's going to show that one to you, but rather, 14 um, it's, what's most natural what rolls off the tongue, 15 right? And B says with a look for, 16 again, it's not a common phrase that you would say in English language and 17 D as well. So this, 18 um, this question here is about first off finding the one, 19 the answer choices, most concise and straight to the point without having extra words. 20 And it was also easy to understand an a C and D are not 21 as easy to understand is B. So that's why B is going to be 22 the best answer.
