Answer 1

A) longer quotations require separate attention from the reader, which interferes with the original sentence

Step-by-step explanation:

Quoting other authors in one's work is a major way to buttress on the subject as well as provide validation for one's work. However very long quotations become quite distracting to the reader as he tries to move his attention from the author's work while trying to relate the quotation to the original work. Comprehension could be hindered by this as the reader's attention is divided by these long quotations.
