While indigenous Americans invented lacrosse before this date, modern lacrosse was first played in 1834 in Montreal, Quebec.
To determine the correct answers, we need to rearrange the phrases and clauses in a way that maintains the same meaning as the original sentences. Let's analyze each option:
Option 1: "Indigenous Americans first played modern lacrosse before this, in Montreal, Quebec, in 1834."
This option does not effectively rearrange the phrases and clauses. It keeps the same structure as the original sentence.
Option 2 (correct): "In Montreal, Quebec, in 1834, modern lacrosse, invented by indigenous Americans, was first played."
This option effectively rearranges the phrases and clauses, placing the location (Montreal, Quebec) and the year (1834) at the beginning of the sentence. It also maintains the information about modern lacrosse being invented by indigenous Americans.
Option 3: "Modern lacrosse was first played in Montreal, Quebec in 1834, although indigenous Americans played lacrosse before this date."
This option effectively rearranges the phrases and clauses, placing the main information about modern lacrosse being first played in Montreal, Quebec in 1834 at the beginning of the sentence. It also includes the additional information about indigenous Americans playing lacrosse before this date.
Option 4 (correct): "While indigenous Americans invented lacrosse before this date, modern lacrosse was first played in 1834 in Montreal, Quebec."
This option effectively rearranges the phrases and clauses, placing the information about indigenous Americans inventing lacrosse before this date at the beginning of the sentence. It then follows with the main information about modern lacrosse being first played in 1834 in Montreal, Quebec.
Option 5: "Modern lacrosse, invented by indigenous Americans before this, was first played in 1834 in Montreal, Quebec."
This option effectively rearranges the phrases and clauses, placing the information about modern lacrosse being invented by indigenous Americans before this at the beginning of the sentence. However, it does not include the specific date and location where it was first played.
Therefore, the two correct answers are Option 2 and Option 4.
