Read the sentence.

Over a period of four days, while we were on vacation out of town, my dog repeated the same behavior over and over again and refused to eat.

Which revision best reduces the sentence to make it easier to understand?

A) We were out of town on vacation for four days, and my dog repeated the same behavior by refusing.

B) During the four days that we were on vacation, my dog refused to eat.

C) My dog refused to eat every day of the four days that we were out of town on vacation.

D) We were away on a vacation for four days and my dog repeatedly refused to eat each day we were away.

B is correct, "During the four days that we were on vacation, my dog refused to eat."

Explanation:

The words vacation and out of town are repetitive, and therefore unnecessary. The words repeated and over and over again are the same case. When you remove both of those, sentence B best portrays the most concise sentence.

B. During the four days that we were on vacation, my dog refused to eat.

Explanation:

Generally, when you want something to be easier to understand, avoid repetitive information, and don't use passive voice. A passive voice indirectly refers to something, like "my homework has been completed", rather than "I've done my homework".

In this, there are 2 key pieces of information that should be clear in the

They were on vacation.

The dog refused to eat.

A. is repetitive because it says that they were out of town on vacation- by being on vacation, it's implied that you're out of town (although there are some exceptions).

C. has the same problem as A, but concisely explains that the dog didn't eat.

D. has both of the problems of A, and seems like a word by word paraphrase of the original.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

i would say it means that you're never alone, that there will always be people supporting me and showing me that they care for me and love me
