Answer
Brief Explanations:
To combine sentence 2 ("'Let freedom ring' is a phrase which is used many times in his speech") and sentence 3 ("'Let freedom ring' is a phrase that leads to an exciting conclusion") effectively, we need a revision that clearly shows the relationship between the phrase being used many times and its purpose (leading to an exciting conclusion).
- The first option introduces an incorrect causal relationship ("because it is an exciting conclusion") which is not present in the original sentences.
- The second option separates the "many times" usage from the purpose in a less cohesive way.
- The third option is wordy and does not combine the ideas as smoothly.
- The fourth option ("'Let freedom ring' is a phrase that is used many times to lead to an exciting conclusion") combines the two ideas (usage frequency and purpose) in a clear and concise manner, maintaining the original meaning.
Answer:
D. "Let freedom ring" is a phrase that is used many times to lead to an exciting conclusion. (Note: Assuming the last option is D; if the options are labeled differently, use the correct label with the text of the last option as above.)
