The sentences that contain an example of contested usage are:
The postman needs to know who this letter is addressed to so it can be delivered. (The contested usage is "who...to," which should be "to whom" in formal English.)
Stephanie started reading the book first, and therefore she finished it before I did. (The contested usage is "therefore," which can be debated in terms of its correct placement and use.)
So the correct answers are sentences 1 and 4.
