How do I avoid repeating sentences in Part 1 answers?

Oct 29, 2026
Short answer

A short answer with the exact phrases to use.

Give the second answer a different job from the first. If answer one states a fact, make answer two give the reason, answer three a comparison and answer four a specific detail. Most repetition in this part comes from two answers doing the same job - usually opinion after opinion - rather than from limited vocabulary. Record one chain, then label each answer with its job: two answers carrying the same label is the line to rewrite.
