• (A) Shortening could be interpreted to mean making the duration shorter, but it does not specifically refer to reducing the severity of a sentence. • (B) Forgive is not a legal term related to sentence adjustments; it refers more to pardoning or absolving someone from blame. • (C) Expiration refers to something coming to an end, such as a term or period, not the reduction of a sentence. • (D) Punishment is a general term for the act of punishing and does not imply a reduction. Thus, none of the options directly corresponds to the legal process of reducing a sentence's severity. If forced to choose the closest match from the provided options under the assumption that "shortening" could loosely include reducing severity (not just time), then (A) Shortening would be the most fitting choice, though it is not the precise legal term.
