<span>C. revising the overall structure and flow of your writing

The correct answer is C. Kiana peered at her watch. It had been four hours since she and Albert had started hiking the trail, but their destination had not yet appeared. What if they were lost? She hoped Albert couldn't sense her worry.
Explanation:
Excerpt C is the only one that describes the actions of a story by using third-person pronouns such as "she" or "they", which is the main feature in the third-person point of view. This is exemplified in "Kiana peered at her watch" or "She hoped Albert couldn't sense her worry". Moreover, the general narrating style shows the narrator is mainly an observer rather than a participant in the story, which is common in this point of view. Moreover, other excerps use the pronoun "I" and this is only used if the text is written in the first-person point of view rather than the third-person point of view.
Answer: D. to inform readers about Blair's apology
Explanation:
The article excerpt provides information about Blair's apology in an unbiased way, meaning that it doesn´t intend to convince the reader of whether an apology was in order or not.
Option A is incorrect because the idea that British diplomats had allegedly been working non-stop is how Blair, and not the article, intends to persuade people not to blame them. Option B is incorrect because the article doesn´t ask or even hint for people to help British survivors. Option C is incorrect because the article is not meant to explain why Britons were deserted, but to inform how Blair considers they were not deserted at all.
