Answer 1

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Any topic you choose for research must be manageable. This sentence is expressed with precise language. The remaining answer choices have redundancy: 3:00 p.m. in the afternoon; There are; forever and ever.

Answer 2

Answer: C) Any topic you choose for research must be manageable.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the English language, redundancy is the use of two or more words that have the same meaning. This term is used for the expressions in which the meaning of a modifier is already conveyed in the word it modifies. For example - early beginnings, or join together.

Sentence C is thus the only sentence with no redundancy. In sentence A, 'forever and ever' is an example of redundancy; in sentence B- 'p.m. in the afternoon'; in sentence D- 'apply for' and 'admission.'
