Read Fatima’s paragraph.
Roman55 [17]

The sentence Fatima's teacher will most likely ask her to revise is "Having moved up north just last year, I experienced my first snowstorm this past winter."

<h3>What does Fatima need to revise?</h3>

To revise a text, we must pay attention to anything that stands out as lacking cohesion or coherence, any unnecessary repetitions, or any mistakes that may prevent readers from understanding the idea.

After reading Fatima's paragraph, we can see that there is one sentence repeating the same idea about the previous year twice: "Having moved up north just last year, I experienced my first snowstorm this past winter." This sentence sounds too informal, since it is acceptable in colloquial speech to repeat ideas as we talk.

However, written language should be more formal and grammatically accurate. For that reason, it is likely that Fatima's teacher will ask her to revise the sentence above in order to remove the repetition.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the first answer choice is the correct option.

This is the complete question with the missing answer choices:

Read Fatima’s paragraph.

Having moved up north just last year, I experienced my first snowstorm this past winter. At first, the snow twirled gently, lightly dusting the street, cars, and trees with snowy frosting. Then, the snow became a curtain, blinding my view so that I felt cocooned from the outside world. When the snow stopped, ice coated the trees and branches clacked like chαttering teeth.

Read this thesis statement: "Heart of Darkness plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo." What is wrong with it?
Monica [59]

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Read this thesis statement: "<em>Heart of Darkness</em> plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo." What is wrong with it?:

A) It is too narrow.

B) It is a plot summary.

C) It is too obvious.

D) It is not supported by the text.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A) It is too narrow.

Explanation:

As we know, this story is narrated by the protagonist, Charlie Marlow, who tells us of the journey he made going up a tropical river to locate a certain Kurtz, an elusive and legendary explorer who, according to his superiors, seems to have entrenched himself deep inside from the jungle. Soon the journey turns into a multi-troubled journey, with mystery and degradation growing as the legend of Lord Kurtz enlarges and takes shape.

The novel is based on a true story in the life of Conrad, who sailed up the Congo River as a ship captain in 1890 while working for the SGB company. There, amid the exploitation and genocide that the settlers carried out in the Congo Free State - the private preserve of King Leopold II of Belgium - Conrad was truly traumatized, wanting to relate the horror of his experience in a book in which, on the other hand, and despite the parallels between author and protagonist, no real places or characters are mentioned.

Just using the phrase<em> "plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo"</em> is too vague to describe the actual plot. Therefore, answer A is correct.
