Answer:

1. Option D ‘He should remove the phrase "I truly believe that"’. Although giving examples and adding more information would support his thesis (for example, comparisons between the thesis he is defending against the one he is not, like option C), the idea of using personal phrases such as “I believe” is not proper for a newspaper informative article, unless is an opinion article in which the reader is expected to encounter this kind of resources.

2. Option C “Make his thesis more grounded in facts”. As he is expressing his opinion, he needs to back it up with additional information, in order to support the idea he is writing about.  

3. Option D “My experience, passion, and record will be asset to your firm”. Is a proper, formal way to describe his intended thesis and to suggest his capabilities make him the one for the position, as he seeks the approval of the firm to get the desired job.

4. Option A “Applying to college is simple because all you have to do is pick a school, fill out the forms, and wait for your acceptance letter”.  This is the suitable way to inform that the process is easy, describing the steps so to support her opinion and also seniors know what to expect in their application processes.

5. Option D “The thesis does not need to be revised”. The original statement provided by Chaquita is well written, proper for an essay, and by adding some more information and facts could be very persuading.

Why is it so important for lawmakers to act against discrimination based on<br> hairstyles?
Aleksandr [31]
It’s important because hair discrimination IS race discrimination. sadly, it is not new, and it is not novel. minorities have suffered hair discrimination for years. a recent study found that african american women face the highest instances of hair discrimination and are more likely to be sent home from the workplace because of their hair. The study also uncovered that 80 percent of african american women felt they needed to switch their hairstyle to align with more conservative standards in order to fit in at work. hair discrimination occurs not only in the workplace, but in schools as well.
