Practice Question

Which of the following sentences contains information irrelevant to the passage as a whole and should be deleted?

Answer Choices

  • A: Sentence 4
  • B: Sentence 5
  • C: Sentence 7
  • D: Sentence 9

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Sentence 7' because, in the context of a passage about bananas, sentence 7 likely introduces unrelated details (e.g., another fruit or topic), disrupting the focus. Sentences 4, 5, and 9 typically align with the main topic.
