Which statement is the best evaluation of this paragraph? The paragraph is sound but needs more supporting evidence to be comple
te. The paragraph does not have a topic sentence, so it is only partially complete. The paragraph needs to be completely revised, since it lacks focus and clarity. The paragraph is less effective after the first sentence because of its disconnected ideas.
Answer: The paragraph is sound but needs more supporting evidence to be complete.
Explanation:
The Paragraph is well ordered and concise. It is easy to understand and the ideas connect well. It even had a topic sentence that showed what the paragraph was about.
It is lacking in terms of supporting evidence though. It mentions by referencing Dr. Yuma Blankenshi, that a parent's behavior can influence a child's beliefs and value system but then does not go on to state how this is done so until that is stated and corroborated, the evidence is incomplete.
