Answer:

1. Unity

Explanation:

One can recognize a unified paragraph when it contains mainly two things: a topic sentence (a sentence expressing the main idea of the paragraph) which is the focus of attention and two or more sentences that support the topic sentence, or that provide more information to the topic sentence.

The paragraph in the question is not unified because its sentences do not support or add information to the topic sentence “Applying for financial aid for college is a complicated process”. The rest of the sentences deviate from the main idea, they add details that are not relevant to understand why applying for financial aid for college is a complicated process or what should one do about it.

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

When I told my brother to take a shower cause he stank. Keep in mind he had not showered for 6 days straight. He argued he didn't but I told him he's gone nose blind from smelling his own stink all day. Hee wouldn't know. So, to test it, he ended up taking a shower. Since he washed all of the stink off his body, he didn't actually smell how bad he was before he showered until went back into his room. He smelt his preshowered stank throughout his room and that's when he admitted that he was wrong.
