English teachers in the Philippines often find themselves in a very frustrating situation-no matter how hard they try to teach the rules of written English to their students, the students still commit errors in word order, word choice, subject-verb agreement, tenses, prepositions, articles, punctuations, and the like. Teachers get frustrated when they hear or read account sentences such as "They decided to got married,” “What did the students watched?” or "Ana go to the canteen."

- Q1617. Read the following paragraphs and answer the question that follow. The main environmental problem caused by the production of Greek yogurt is the creation of acid whey as a by-product. Because it requires up to four times more milk to make than conventional yogurt does, Greek yogurt produces larger amounts of acid whey, which is difficult to dispose of. To address the problem of disposal, farmers have found a number of uses for acid whey. They can add it to livestock feed as a protein supplement, and people can make their own Greek-style yogurt at home by straining regular yogurt. If it is improperly introduced into the environment, acid-whey runoff can pollute waterways, depleting the oxygen content of streams and rivers as it decomposes. Yogurt manufacturers, food scientists; and government officials are also working together to develop additional solutions for reusing whey. [6] Though these conservation methods can be costly and time-consuming, they are well worth the effort. Nutritionists consider Greek yogurt to be a healthy food: it is an excellent source of calcium and protein, serves to be a digestive aid, and it contains few calories in its unsweetened low- and non-fat forms. Greek yogurt is slightly lower in sugar and carbohydrates than conventional yogurt is. Also, because it is more concentrated, Greek yogurt contains slightly more protein per serving, thereby helping people stay satiated for longer periods of time. Question: Should you delete this sentence?Yes, because it fails to support the main argument of the passage as introduced in the first paragraph.Yes, because it does not provide a transition from the previous paragraph.No, because it continues the explanation of how acid whey can be disposed of safely.No, because it sets up the argument in the paragraph for the benefits of Greek yogurt.60sEditDelete
