The correct answer is A. Extra innings tack on time to an already long game, but they are necessary to determine a winner.
Explanation:
Sentence 4 "Extra innings tack on time to an already long game, but the end is always the most exciting part" is biased because it includes a subjective opinion "is always the most exciting part", which makes the text lacks neutrality, and therefore influence a specific perspective (bias). According to this, it is necessary to replace the section that includes a personal opinion and replaced it with a fact or neutral statement. Thus, the best option is A because by using "but they are necessary to determine a winner" the writer can preserve the neutrality in the text and avoid bias.

Answer: Our paper's science writer, whose column I read every week, recently reported on exoplanets.
Explanation: There are three ideas here.
1. Our paper's science writer
2. They recently reported on exoplanets
3. How I read their column every week.
Two of the ideas are included in the sentence (1 and 2), and the last simply needs to be modified.
"Whose" is a determiner and associates things with other things. In the last idea, we associate their column to them: whose column... Then, we add how I read it every week and say, "...whose column I read every week."
