Zorluk: KolayEliminating Redundancy

The historical museum recently acquired a collection of rare maps, these documents, which are currently at this time on display in the main gallery.

Which choice is the most concise and grammatically correct?

  1. A
    NO CHANGE
  2. B
    these documents are currently at this time
  3. which areCevap
  4. D
    which are currently at this time

Cevap

The correct answer is the option that replaces the underlined text with 'which are'.
The correct option replaces the underlined portion with a relative pronoun and verb. This creates a grammatically correct relative clause modifying 'maps' and eliminates the redundant repetition of 'currently' and 'at this time'.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the error in the original sentence.
The original sentence contains a redundancy error because 'currently' and 'at this time' mean the same thing, and it creates a grammatical fragment because the second clause lacks a main predicate for 'these documents'.
Redundant expressions and sentence fragments must be corrected to make the sentence clear and grammatically correct.
2
Evaluate the choices to find the one that is both grammatically correct and concise.
The choice 'which are' creates a grammatically correct dependent clause that modifies 'maps' and removes the redundant words entirely.
The ACT exam prefers the most concise option that preserves the sentence's intended meaning without introducing grammatical errors.
