Your answer would be that:

the paragraph's meaning changes slightly. First, it meant that that 'you' were the one in line to inherit the special or unordinary piece. Now, the paragraph means that 'you' were the one in line to inherit the piece in which has great value.

What's the difference between vague and precise verbs?
m_a_m_a [10]

The correct answer is Precise verbs are easier to imagine

Explanation:

Precise verbs differ from vague verbs because these refer to very specific actions or states. For example, the verbs "mutter" or "crawl" are precise verbs because these refer to very specific actions. On the other hand, the verb "move" is vague because this does not explain how the movement occurs. Moreover, precise verbs allow the reader to imagine precisely the action described, and therefore are easier to imagine and are more suitable to create precise descriptions.
