Answer:

A) 1. Sentence 1

B) 2. Yo-Yo Ma, who was born in Paris,

Explanation:

Adjective clauses, which are the ones that modify or describe nouns, can be either nonrestrictive or restrictive. Nonrestrictive clauses are those whose content is not essential to the meaning of the sentence, and therefore, should always be set off by commas.

The sentence 1 “Yo-Yo Ma who was born in Paris is a Chinese American cellist” contains an error because the nonrestrictive clause “who was born in Paris” is not set off by commas as it should. The revision that would correct this error is <em>Yo-Yo Ma, who was born in Paris, is a Chinese American cellist.</em>

THIS SECTION TESTS YOUR ABILITTY TO IDENTIFY THE APPROPRIATE ORDER OF A PARAGRAPH.
alukav5142 [94]

The best option among the answer choices to put the sentences in the correct order and form the paragraph is 3,2,4,1, as stated in option B.

<h3>What is the appropriated order?</h3>

After analyzing the sentences, we can see the following:

  • Sentence 4 complements sentence 2. That means the two of them should appear together in our answer choice.
  • Since sentence 2 begins with "or", it should come after another sentence that suggests something different. In that case, the best option is sentence 3.
  • Sentence 1 can appear at the beginning or the ending of the paragraph, as long as the order of the other sentences makes sense.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the best answer choice is option B, 3,2,4,1.
