Read the paragraph. patty and maureen took the long drive to their high school reunion. the women were excited about the prospect of seeing old friends at the ranch. the group had quite a past history to reminisce about. the weekend was sure to be full of stories and laughter! which sentence should be revised to eliminate redundancy? sentence 1 sentence 2 sentence 3 sentence 4

The correct answer is Sentence 3. I took the test and got sentence 2 wrong and it said 3 was the right answer.

The correct answer to the question: Which sentence should be revised to eliminate redundancy, would be, Sentence 3.

Explanation:

The reason for this being the sentence that needs to be removed because it is adding redundant information to the paragraph is that in both sentence 3 and sentence 4 the same information is being relied. Both sentences clarify that there will be a lot of histories, and stories, that will be talked about because they will be meeting with friends at their high school reunion. However, given the tone of the previous sentences, 1 and especially 2, which is a tone of excitement, from the two remaining sentence, the one that maintains the tone is number 4, so sentence number 3 is unnecessary and can be removed. The reason for sentence 2 not being the answer is that this sentence does not give the same information, but rather, explains what is said in sentence 1. Just because they are going to a high school reunion, doesn´t mean they are meeting with friends, and thus these two sentences could be taken as redundant. Rather, sentence 2 expands on what sentence 1 has already established. And sentence 4 explains further what will happen during that meeting with friends.
