Which sentence contains a redundancy?

English
2 answers:
Elena L [17]3 years ago
0 0

D) It was his usual custom to wash his hands before each meal.

When one is redundant, one basically says the same thing twice or says something that is unnecessary.  For instance, it would be redundant to say “wet water” because water, by its nature is wet.  Thus, when we look at Option D, the redundancy it contains is “usual custom.”  This is redundant because an act that is customary, or is a custom, is so because of its usual practice.

The correct answer is D. It was his usual custom to wash his hands before each meal.

Either usual or custom can be removed since one is redundant. If it is usual then it is a custom and if its a custom there is no need to mention that it is usual.

HELP ON CAVE ART MAY HAVE BEEN HANDIWORK OF NEANDERTHALS!COMMONLIT
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

"Cave Art May Have Been Handiwork of Neanderthals" is an article written by Christopher Joyce. The article speaks about the new discoveries that scientists have made regarding cave art situated in Spain.

The author said in the article that these arts in the cave found in Spain were first attributed to Africans and that the arts must have been painted some 45,000 years ago. But with new technology, scientists are claiming that these arts are the work of some 65,000 years ago and at that time Neanderthals were assumed to exist. So, scientists with new technologies have proved their previous claims false.

<u>In the conclusive paragraph of his article, that is paragraph 17, Joyce says that the final credit of these arts depends on the new technologies. This means that the technologies used by scientists to date the cave art are not accurate</u>.

So, the correct answer is option D.
