<p>Hey guys, I recently took one of the SAT's that I printed from the collegeboard website and I have some questions which I'm dubious about.</p>
<p>1). The famous filmmaker had a tendency of changing his recollections, perhaps out of boredom at having to tell interviewers the same story over and over.</p>
<p>Well, it's an identifying sentence error questions and here are the choices</p>
<p>(A) had a tendency
(B) of changing
(C) out of boredom
(D) at having
(E) No error</p>
<p>Well, I put E, but the actual answer is C. Why? Is it just unidiomatic or something? Or is there an entirely different reason.</p>
<p>2). The television station has received many complaints about the clothing advertisements, which some viewers condemn to be tasteless. </p>
<p>Here are the choices</p>
<p>(A) has received
(B) about
(C) which some
(D) to be
(E) No error</p>
<p>Here is my reasoning. I put C because I though which would be an ambiguous pronoun. This is because "which" can refer to either complaints or advertisements. Obviously, this line of reasoning is wrong because the correct answer is D. I am pretty sure that "to be" should be replaced with "as." So, I've apparently corrected my own error. So why am I asking you guys? This is because now there are two errors in the question so which one should I choose? (Well obviously there is only 1 error, but it is slightly normative=P). </p>
<p>I would appreciate your help. Thanks in advance guys.</p>
