I am having lots of problems revising sentences. (GED help)
0 Everytime I see a question like this: 02 br
02 br
00 I.e. 02 br
02 br
00 Sentence 10: 01 b 00 The printing press may be the single most important invention ever made and yet exception may be taken to that if you consider the personal computer. 02 br
02 br
02 b 00 The most effective revision of sentence 10 would include which group of words? 02 br
02 br
00 (1) made, yet taking exception to that 02 br
00 (2) Either the printing press or the personal computer is the single most important 02 br
00 (3) Taking exception to the printing press being 02 br
00 (4) made except, perhaps, for the personal computer 02 br
00 (5) made, yet considering the perosnal computer 02 br
02 br
00 Correct answer was option (4). 02 br
02 br
00 Well, I got this question correct on the practice test, but if I see anymore questions that look like this, I'll end up guessing on most of them. These questions confuse me. Are there any tips anyone could give me to help me analyze and revise these questions without wasting too much time ? 0-

0 Yes, I always do that method, but I always end up having to guess between 2 or even 3 possible answers. After correcting my mistake, I try to read why my answer was wrong but the book doesn't give enough details; I wouldn't be able to understand it myself. 0-
