SAT Writing: New York Library question

<p>Which letter was the correct answer choice for #10 on the last section?</p>

<p>I don’t remember the complete question, but I remember thinking that all the answer choices felt wrong…</p>

<p><em>sigh</em> I was retaking the SAT to bump my CR score…good thing there’s always superscore :)</p>

<p>The original option was correct and it was #11 by the way.</p>

<p>^ Yep, original was correct.</p>

<p>I put E, which read: “The largest city public library is the New York Public library; it contains over a million books and volumes”</p>

<p>That’s definitely grammatically correct.</p>

<p>There was a “in the United States” after “library” did it get omitted?</p>

<p>nsaff your answer was probably not as concise as the original</p>

<p>It was definitely the original.</p>

<p>@nsaff94, except that’s not what the choice said…</p>

<p>Choice E had an unnecessary “that” somewhere in the sentence.</p>

<p>I can’t remember exactly what the original sound, but I remember it just sounded wrong…</p>

<p>nsaff94, there was no such answer. i’m sure i read something similar that went something like:</p>

<p>“The largest city public library is the New York Public library; containing over a million books and volumes”</p>

<p>Was the number 11 for “librarians” had the answer “Unlike those OF”?</p>

<p>^ That is correct, but that’s the regular section, the OP is talking about final section</p>

<p>i put A, leaving it in its original form</p>

<p>Btw, the answer to the very last writing question about maria was E correct?</p>

<p>none of the answers seemed right…I felt like A was the best choice</p>

<p>Does anyone here remember the original sentence? I remember reading it thinking ‘It’s definitely not A’ for some reason :/</p>

<p>In my memory it was “The largest public library in the United States, the New York State library contains over a million books and volumes.”</p>

<p>Nsaff only left out “in the US”. After the semi colon it was “it contains…”</p>

<p>Yeah, vermillionwaves got it right, because I remember thinking that you would need to add a comma after “The New York Public Library” so it would read: “The largest public library in the United States, the New York Public library, contains over a million books and volumes.”</p>

<p>Without the comma, I’m pretty sure it’s incorrect.</p>

<p>So the original sentence (answer choice A) is still incorrect…but the other choices are just more incorrect?</p>

<p>Edit: oops, nevermind! I see it now. Thanks!</p>
