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.

PLS WRITE 3 PARAGRAPHS BELOW WITH evidence, including facts, details, examples, or logical reasons. ITS REALLY IMPORTANT.
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Yes, it is important.

Explanation:

when we tell our young these stories of noble actions committed by heroes such as King Author, it teaches them valuable life lessons, and lets them grow up to be strong noble men that have good moral standards. So yes I believe that people believing in folk tail stories is important.  

Even though there is little evidence to prove the historical existance of King Arthur, I think it is important to learn about his legend and values of the time. First of all, Arthur's story gives us a hint of what England was like during the period before it was unified into one kingdom. In this way, we can learn about what life was like then and what principles were considered important. Secondly, I think there is still a lot to discover about his legend. As a result, the more we study it and do research, the closer we will be of finding more evidence regarding his life as a historical character.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Explanation:

1. Family

In this excerpt, the boys are talking about a possible consequence for people who reveal the secrets. They decide that killing families would be a great deterrent. However, they realize Huck doesn't have any family worth killing. This shows how important family is to the characters and how little Huck's father was valued in society.

2. Deception

In the excerpt, Helmer talks about how Krogstad had to use a "cunning trick" and "how he has to wear a mask". These are all indicators of deception. Deception is a lie or a trick.

3. gender differences

Helmer says, "no man would sacrifice his honor." Nora says, "It is a thing hundreds of thousands of women have done." In this excerpt, they are showing the differences between a man and a woman.

4. Supernatural beliefs

In this excerpt, the speaker is comparing a sound a ghost makes. He also talks about getting some bad luck. Then does a few actions that would hopefully ward off any evil coming his way. The superstitious nature of his behavior is evidence of supernatural beliefs.
