    A concise sentence is one that eliminates wordiness and gets rid of extra phrases or clauses that are not pertinent to the content or delivery of the sentence. In option A phrases such as "and the like", "the fact that", and "inclined toward" are extra and not necessary to the sentence. Option B is the best choice because it eliminates the wordiness and extra phrases to make the sentence as clear and direct as possible.
