　　Explanation

　　1.The correct answer is E

　　Choice (E) is correct. It avoids the error of the original by using the appropriate pronoun“where” to indicate that the “United States” was where Caruso gave “his first performance atthe Metropolitan Opera.”

　　2.The correct answer is D

　　Choice (D) is correct. It avoids the error of the original by removing the unnecessarypronoun “it.”

　　3.The correct answer is C

　　Choice (C) is correct. It avoids the error of the original by comparing what “Modern discusthrowers” do to what “ancient Greeks did” (not to “ancient Greece,” a comparison that wouldnot make logical sense).

　　4.The correct answer is E

　　Choice (E) is correct. It avoids the error of the original by using the pronoun “that” to referto “The language” so that one thing, “The language of the Navajo people,” is properly comparedto another thing, “that [the language] of their Apache cousins.”
