Question

Which sentence would be inappropriate in a piece of research writing with a formal tone?

Answer 1

Answer:

American obsession with baseball is pretty ridiculous.

Explanation:

C would be inappropiate because it states an opinion, and it is in a informal tone.

Research writing should only contain facts, not opinions.

Answer 2

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A formal tone helps establish the writer's respect for the audience and suggests that the writer is serious about his or her topic. It is the kind of tone that educated people use when communicating with other educated people. Most academic writing uses a formal tone.

So any sentence that would pretty much be easier to understand like C, is inappropriate as a sentence in research writing.
