Answer:

Letter D is correct.

Explanation:

According to Cambridge Dictionary, paraphrasing means to "repeat something written or spoken using different words." The intention of this exercise is to make the words shorter and simpler, so the reader can understand with his or her own words what the speaker wanted to say.

It is not necessary to break the original text into individual sentences; even though it can help at the beginning, isolating sentences can create more problems that the ones can solve, specially because it may make the reader understand each excerpt as an individual one.

Even if you are paraphrasing, it is necessary to credit the source to indicate the words that are being paraphrased.

Letter C is also incorrect because it is not mandatory to substitute phrases <em>here and there</em> (it is not a must), specially if there are phrases from the text that can help readers understand it as written.

Letter D is correct since paraphrasing respects the main idea of the original passage, even the words could be changed to some closer to the reader's speech, so he can understand the passage.

Ever hear about a girl named Anne Frank? Anne Frank was a girl whose family was a Jew and they had to go into hiding because of the Nazi's trying to kill all of the Jews. Now Anne was a very loud and happy girl. She always knew what to say. She goes through problems while in hiding like Jealously and having Courage.

Anne loved writing in her diary and that is what she did for fun when everyone had to be quiet. She also liked reading. She was then very loud when everyone left the building they were hiding on top of. She never cared about what anyone thought of her when she was loud. She also say what happened in her mind which led to some problems.

Anne may sound perfect but she isn't she thinks that Margot (her sister) is better than her. She wants to fit in with her family but she thinks she is the odd one out of the family. She also thinks that Peter (the son of the other family that's in hiding with the Franks) hates her because she is acting like a child and not acting like an adult Woman. She feels as she doesn't fit in.

Now Anne says many smart remarks in the story of "The Diary of Anne Frank" on thing she says is, "I want to go on living after my death." That quote has been floating around the world as people in many different countries read Anne's Diary and understand the Circumstances that she has to go through. Also she says "Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart." Many people are shocked by this because could Hitler still have a good heart after what he did to all the people during the Holocaust? or Did the Nazi's have a good heart for helping Hitler out and killing innocent people. That statement she says makes people wonder why she said that as they read her diary.  


Hope that helped!

Answer:

Inside the cylinder contains the key to reveal the answer to solve all the problems along with a map. The map was one of the solar system. There was a X on Pluto. “The answer must lie on Pluto” one of the boys whispered, his face in shock. The boys looked up, looked around, and spotted what they needed. The remains of a space ship that crashed. The boys, being technology and engineering geeks, went over analyzed the ship, and declared it was usable for about 1005 hours in space. Enough time to reach Pluto and back. It takes around 50 hours to get ther, and 50 back. If they were lucky...
