College Board, SAT, and the acorn logo are registered trademarks of the College Board. 5KSA09  \nSection 2: Writing and Language Test  \nQUESTION 1.  \nChoice D is the best answer because “outweigh” is the only choice that appropriately reflects the relationship the sentence sets up between “advantages” and “drawbacks.”  \nChoices A, B, and C are incorrect because each implies a competitive relationship that is inappropriate in this context.  \nQUESTION 2.  \nChoice B is the best answer because it offers a second action that farmers can undertake to address the problem of acid whey disposal, thus supporting the claim made in the previous sentence (“To address the problem of disposal, farmers have found a number of uses for acid whey”) .  \nChoices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not offer examples of how farmers could make use of acid whey.  \nQUESTION 3.  \nChoice A is the best answer because it results in a sentence that is grammatically correct and coherent. In choice A,“waterways,” the correct plural form of “waterway,” conveys the idea that acid whey could impact multiple bodies of water. Additionally, the compound verb “can pollute” suggests that acid whey presents an ongoing, potential problem.  \nChoices B and D are incorrect because both use the possessive form of“waterway.” Choice C is incorrect because it creates an unnecessary shift in verb tense. The present tense verb “can pollute” should be used instead, as it is consistent with the other verbs in the paragraph.  \nQUESTION 4.  \nChoice C is the best answer because it utilizes proper punctuation for items listed in a series. In this case those items are nouns: “Yogurt manufacturers, food scientists, and government officials.”  \nChoices A and B are incorrect because both fail to recognize that the items are a part of a series. Since a comma is used after “manufacturers,” a semicolon or colon should not be used after “scientists.” Choice D is incorrect because the comma after “and” is unnecessary and deviates from grammatical conventions for presenting items in a series.  \nQUESTION 5.  \nChoice C is the best answer because sentence 5 logically links sentence 2, which explains why Greek yogurt production yields large amounts of acid  \nwhey, and sentence 3, which mentions the need to dispose of acid whey properly.  \nChoices A, B, and D are incorrect because each would result in an illogical progression of sentences for this paragraph. If sentence 5 were left where it is or placed after sentence 3, it would appear illogically after the discussion of“the problem of disposal.” If sentence 5 were placed after sentence 1, it would illogically discuss “acid-whey runoff” before the mention of acid whey being“difficult to dispose of.”  \nQUESTION 6.  \nChoice D is the best answer because the paragraph includes several benefits of consuming Greek yogurt, particularly in regard to nutrition and satisfying hunger, to support the sentence’s claim that the conservation efforts are “well worth the effort.” This transition echoes the passage’s earlier claim that “the advantages of Greek yogurt outweigh the potential drawbacks of its production.”  \nChoices A, B, and C are incorrect because they inaccurately describe the sentence in question.  \nQUESTION 7.  \nChoice B is the best answer because it provides a grammatically standard preposition that connects the verb “serves” and noun “digestive aid” and accurately depicts their relationship.  \nChoice A is incorrect because the infinitive form “to be” yields a grammatically incorrect verb construction: “serves to be.” Choices C and D are incorrect because both present options that deviate from standard English usage.  \nQUESTION 8.  \nChoice C is the best answer because it presents a verb tense that is consistent in the context of the sentence. The choice is also free of the redundant “it.”  \nChoice A is incorrect because the subject “it” creates a redundancy.
