Select all the correct answers. Which TWO strategies belong to the revision phase of writing?
kupik [55]

Answer:

Options one and three are the correct answer.

Explanation:

In this question, it is important to remember that the revision phase of writing happens after a final draft is written. This draft is used as the basis to discuss anything that can be improved. <u>Check that the sequence of events makes logical sense</u> is correct because it would avoid contradictory events and clarify the structure to readers. <u>Modify the writing in responde to feedback from peers</u> is also important because the peers are a group of readers that can help identify any inconvenient things.

Whats an example of a fragment and a run on sentence.
Zepler [3.9K]

A sentence fragment is an incomplete sentence that cannot stand by itself because there is a subject and/or a main verb missing. Unless they are used to convey a certain style, sentence fragments should be avoided because they are gramatically incorrect. <u>Examples of sentence fragments are "swam by the river" or "Throughout the novel, the author"</u>. On the other hand, a run-on sentence is a sentence that contains two or more independent clauses that have been connected in an improper way.<u> Examples of run-on sentences are "My sister is sick we are not going to the beach" "I studied for the test I arrived late"</u>.
