[Video] Q30: No change or site in search of or sight in search for or cite in search f

Explanation for Question 30 From the Writing Section on the Official Sat Practice Test 4

So looking at question number 30, the first thing that we need to decide 2 is what version of the word sites do we want to use? 3 And looking at our sentence, it tells us that, 4 um, the Bryce breaths of Ohio 5 state university has employed software through postings on one social media site 6 in search of, right. So we're talking about a social media site, 7 like a website. When we're talking about a website, 8 we use the S version. We use the site version with a C while 9 we're talking about references. So for example, 10 you might have a teacher that tells you to cite your sources. 11 Um, that version of site, when you're talking about writing and, 12 you know, references citations, 13 you see, but in this case, we're talking about a website, 14 so we're going to use the S version. And then the question is, 15 do we use in search of, or, or in search for, 16 and this part of the question is just a, a common phrases question. 17 Others, really no like grammar rule to back it, 18 except that in the English language, the common phrase is to say search of 19 rather than search for. Um, so this isn't like commas or colons where there's 20 a specific rule about clauses. But the only explanation is that this 21 is simply how we say it in the English language. 22 We wouldn't say search for it. We would say search of. 23 And so that's why our best answer is B.
