I believe the correct answer to this question is the first choice. ` A) The man made a decision and agreed to exercise daily. `

`Wordiness is taking more words than necessary to make your point. It may take the form of redundant expressions or phrases. To be sure, longer expressions may be appropriate at times as a matter of style or to avoid ambiguity.`

shasha12:

Now that I think about it, I'm starting to believe that the answer is A because it expresses an idea but B doesn't really

Elsa213:

The question is asking which is NOT wordiness. Which is why I thought the correct answer is the first choice.

ThisGirlPretty:

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking >.<

shasha12:

You lost me

Elsa213:

The question wants the sentence that does not contain wordiness. The sentence that gets straight to the point without adding more words than necessary.

shasha12:

oh, yeah, then that would be B

shasha12:

|dw:1522419571728:dw| A picture for you both

Elsa213:

B contains wordiness.

Elsa213:

Thank you. :p
