Answer:

Even though this question is missing the options, after analyzing the revision we can safely say it was made for <u>conciseness</u>.

Explanation:

Conciseness can be simply defined as saying a lot in just a few words. Notice how the original paragraph is much longer than the revised one. The writer gave much more information than what was truly necessary. Details such as "and that new procedures need to be initiated" and "who was sympathetic" are superfluous. The first one adds nothing of value. If the procedures are inadequate, it is quite obvious that new ones need to be initiated. Readers could infer that. The second one is permeated with subjectivity, not only making the paragraph longer, but also stating an opinion that in uncalled for in this context. By eliminating the extra words, the writer made the paragraph concise, using fewer words to express the necessary.

How might the title of a literary work help you examine its purpose?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The title often suggests the message the author wants to send.

Explanation:

the title does not always include the names of main characters, and you obviously cannot tell what to expect from the plot or the tone of the work by a title, so the answer is the title often suggests the message the author wants to send.
