Answer 1

Sentence 4, "Hamburgers and pizza have a particularly high concentration of saturated fats," does not directly support the main idea, which is about the causes of acne. While it gives information about the composition of certain foods, it does not explicitly link these foods to acne causation or skin health. Therefore, the correct answer is:

C 4

Answer 3

To improve the clarity and precision of the underlined section of the sentence, it is best to provide a specific time frame if available. Between the given options:

A Sometime - This is quite vague and does not provide a specific or clear time frame.
B In April - This option provides a clear and specific time frame.
C In the spring - This is more precise than "sometime," but less specific than "in April."
D Sooner or later - This is very vague and does not offer any clear time frame.

The most clear and precise option is:

B In April
