The strategy that would most improve Laurel’s statement to make it more conventional is option D) “Change the phrase "shooting the breeze" because it is too informal and cannot be understood literally.” When speaking to her new neighbors about babysitting their daughter, Laurel needs to adapt her language to her audience, in this case adults, in order to express her ideas in a way that everybody understands. The rest of the options are incorrect since the language used is not informal and does not interfere with the understanding of her message.
D) The news the Lady Macbeth has killed herself.

Dear Miss. Salazar,
I attended your career planning workshop at the Trace College library on 15 December, 2018. Your presentation was just what I needed to organize myself. Would it be possible for you to send me copies of your resume-writing guidelines, the worksheet, and the sample? Unfortunately, you ran out of these handouts before you got to me.
Sincerely,
Menard B. Bancajr
**Double check the city name/address makes sense.. I did my best :)
