Answer:

The answer is Option D:  Because she wrote about environmental damage caused by DDT.

Explanation:

Carson warned about the overuse of pesticides like DDT (short for dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane). These were overused in the agricultural industry in an attempt to control crop pests. This pesticide compound would be washed into streams and rivers and Carson warned that it was moving up the food chain, and entire ecosystems were threatened because it was dangerous for birds and fish and humans eating these animal and plant products too. Carson's was a successful science writer and scientist herself. Her argument reached far and wide after she published the Silent Spring in 1962. It is credited with the nationwide ban on the use of DDT and the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency.

Write application to the principal of your school regarding access to E-LIBRARY.
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Number 16 Admiralty,

Brussels.

24th September, 2020.

To the principal,

Modern High School

ACCESS TO THE SCHOOL E-LIBRARY

Dear Sir,

Yesterday I needed to make some research on a school project and when I tried to access the school's e-library, I found out that I was unable to do so. I tried to source the information elsewhere but the results were less than satisfactory.

I implore you to look into this issue because my case is not an isolated one. Other students were unable to access the e-library yesterday. This has greatly hampered our research progress.

Thank you for your understanding and anticipated response.

Yours faithfully,

Emmanuel Anyaoha.

What is an example of local revision
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

b. taking out an awkward phrase

Explanation:

Option B is an example of local revision.

Local revision is known to deal more with sentence-level revision. In this type, words are changed in order to make a sentence clearer, grammatical or spelling errors are correcting, awkward phrases or clauses are removed, etc.

Another type of revision is global revision. This type focuses on the big picture of the whole work;  the ideas, audience, analysis, organization, etc.  

Allyn & Bacon Guide to Writing Concise Edition stated, ""You revise locally whenever you make changes to a text that affect only the one or two sentences that you are currently working on. In contrast, you revise globally when a change in one part of your draft drives changes in other parts of the draft"

Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.
