Hello,
Maru [420]

Explanation:

The article mentioned in the newspaper is about the thief who used to rob the valuable assets from the residents of Denver, who was eventually caught.

I think the post is absolutely perfect. Just a minor correction. In the third paragraph it is mentioned ‘When I went to get the check, I found it ransacking my closets.’ Here, instead of ‘it’ it should have been ‘him’. I found ‘him’ ransacking my closets.

Apart from this, there seems no grammatical errors. It is written in a simple and fluent English, very straightforward and to the point. The details mentioned are apt, and excluding the unnecessary details leaves the chance of making a post boring, thus leading to a well written interesting news for the readers.

Read Gunther's evaluation of an argument. In his editorial "Better Safe Than Sorry?: Revisiting the Debate over Capital Punishme
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

D). A Concluding Statement.

Explanation:

As per the question, the given evaluation misses a 'concluding statement' that prevents a closure in the evaluation. A concluding statement is quite essential as it not only functions to bind the argument together and add cohesiveness to it. <u>Since Gunther misses the concluding statement, the readers are unable to receive a 'sum up' of the evaluation along with the judgment and concluding remarks of the author which not only reiterates the key ideas together but also brings a closure</u>. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
