## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify the redundant phrase in the sentence. Redundancy in language refers to the use of words or phrases that are unnecessary because they repeat something that has already been said.## Step 2Looking at the sentence, we can see that the phrase "At first" and "my initial reaction" both refer to the beginning of the speaker's thought process. The phrase "At first" is used to indicate the beginning of something, while "my initial reaction" is used to describe the speaker's first thought or feeling.## Step 3Since both phrases are used to describe the beginning of the speaker's thought process, they are redundant. The phrase "At first" is unnecessary because "my initial reaction" already indicates the beginning of the speaker's thought process.## Step 4Therefore, the phrase "At first" should be deleted to remove redundancy in the sentence.
