It's debatable whether "1." is part of the sentence (and thus should be left alone). We wouldn't consider a non-alphanumeric bullet point to be part of a sentence.
Regardless of which you chose, if the examiner wished to disqualify you, they could simply say it's the opposite.
- alexey-salmin 2y agoNo one says it's a part of the sentence. It's a number of the sentence, as in "this is the sentence number one".
- KingMob 2y agoI get you, but to my ears, the phrasing itself implies it's part of the sentence (unless the common phrasing was different back then). Most people would say "The number _preceding_ this sentence". "of this" sounds like it's part of the sentence.
