College Board ? of the Day

Part of the following sentence is underlined; beneath the sentence are five ways of phrasing the underlined material. Select the option that produces the best sentence. If you think the original phrasing produces a better sentence than any of the alternatives, select choice A.


The language of the Navajo people, like their Apache cousins, is classified in the Athabascan language family.



  1. their

  2. for their

  3. that of its

  4. its

  5. that of their




Hint
Make sure that the two things being compared in the sentence are of the same type (don’t compare “language” to “cousins”).
