Question: 244

14. Before the book was ________, references to several living people were ________.

  • A. banned . . . deleted
  • B. published . . . expunged
  • C. printed . . . informed
  • D. reviewed . . . added

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

B is correct. The key word in this sentence is "before," which sets up a logical structure for the sentence and tells you that before this can occur, that must occur.Choice A can be discounted almost immediately because names do not have to be deleted before a book is banned. Choice D is incorrect because by the time a book is reviewed, it is too late to add any material to the manuscript.Choice C is wrong because printed is a reference to a book that is an inanimate object and therefore cannot be informed of anything. Choice B is correct.
