Which revision of the first sentence follows the style guide and best retains the clarity of the original?

English
1 answer:
xxTIMURxx [149]2 years ago
3 0

Choice A:  We conducted a survey of those in the immediate area and asked which type of notary stamp each liked best.

Essentially, the only thing that differentiates Choice A from the rest, is it's pronoun used.

In the original, the pronoun phrase used in relation to the adjective "those," was "he or she."

From this we can infer that Choice B is out of the question since it only states "she."

Choice C, though a tempting choice, is incorrect since the word "they" isn't inclusive enough.

Choice D is erroneous because it does not provide more clarity than the original. In fact, it doesn't even seem like a revision since the two pronouns were joined by a forward slash.

Please Help Me With This!!!!!<br><br> Write A Good Story Using All These Words!!!!!
Masteriza [31]
The nineteen year-old girl had just made her fourth score in her soccer game, the fourth goal winning the game. She looked over and saw her cousin applauding her from the sidelines, a present, which excited her, tucked under her arms.
After the game, the girl walked over to her cousin, took the present, and opened it. Inside was a beautiful necklace with a soccer ball as a pendant. It had a charm to it, the girl saw. Her cousin patted her on the back and congratulated her, grinning as he did so.
Later, the teenage girl sat at her computer, looking at the format with the new picture of the necklace she had just downloaded. She turned and saw the portrait of her parents on her bedroom wall. Then, she smiled. Turning back to the computer, she started to play a game. The goal was to merge two circles together by tapping rapidly. If you didn't merge the circles in time, they would squirt black ink in the player's face.
After getting bored with the game, the girl began her homework. She only had one vocabulary word left: Sermon. Getting stumped with the word, the girl made a verdict, or decision, to look up the word.
Turning on her phone, she saw that the screen was quite bleary. She silently cursed, but then took out her packet of homework and a pencil. At the top corner of the first page was an earthworm with a top hat, saying, "Learning is fun!"
The packet was on Mathematics, so the girl thought that she was never going to get it done. She had only recently learned, for about the thousandth time, angles. She already knew about acute, obtuse, and right angles, yet the teachers still force her to work on them. She didn't have a protractor at hand, so she couldn't do some of the questions. On the next page, a set of printed 3D shapes were placed on the paper. There was a cone picture, too, with only one vertex. Next to the cone were two congruent cubes.
After finishing the packet, the girl went to bed, very tired.

In the context of this story, how does power corrupt? How does the balance of power between the children and the man change thro
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Power can corrupt when someone is looking for power and when they start liking it, so they will go out and try to think they are better than other people.

Explanation:

The balance of power between the characters changed because when the man was stuck in the well the children thought they had more power over the man in the beginning of the story, but at the end of the story, the man in the well gained more power over over the children when he was making them scared because he knew their names which frightened them.
