  4. D
    who, working together

Cevap

The choice 'who worked together' is correct because it is the most concise option that eliminates the redundant words while maintaining proper grammar.
The option 'who worked together' is correct because it removes the redundant synonyms 'cooperatively' and 'in collaboration' that repeat the meaning already expressed by 'worked together', resulting in a clear, concise, and grammatically correct sentence.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the underlined portion and analyze it for redundant phrasing.
The words 'cooperatively', 'together', and 'in collaboration' all express the same concept of working jointly, creating unnecessary repetition.
ACT English rewards conciseness and clarity; expressing the same idea multiple times is incorrect.
2
Evaluate the remaining choices to find the one that is grammatically correct and free of redundancy.
The option 'who worked together' expresses the idea clearly and concisely. The option with 'they collaborated' creates a comma splice, and 'who, working together' creates an incomplete fragment.
This step ensures the selected choice is grammatically sound while avoiding redundant structures.
