4) Which strategy would MOST improve Laurel's statement by making its language more conventional? (Laurel is meeting with the ne

w neighbors to discuss babysitting for her three year old daughter.) Laurel: "I always enjoy babysitting for a little boy named Grant on the weekend, even though I could be out shooting the breeze with friends." A) Change the phrase "always enjoy" because she probably does not like to babysit Grant every time. B) Add the last name of the little boy named Grant because it is inappropriate to use only first names. C) Change the phrase "with friends" because it is too vague and informal to use when speaking to adults. D) Change the phrase "shooting the breeze" because it is too informal and cannot be understood literally.

The strategy that would most improve Laurel’s statement to make it more conventional is option D) “Change the phrase "shooting the breeze" because it is too informal and cannot be understood literally.” When speaking to her new neighbors about babysitting their daughter, Laurel needs to adapt her language to her audience, in this case adults, in order to express her ideas in a way that everybody understands. The rest of the options are incorrect since the language used is not informal and does not interfere with the understanding of her message.

How to identify a semicoln
nikklg [1K]
A semicolons NEVER should be used to try to create a "pause" longer than that achieved by a comma. If you can use a period correctly, then you can use a semicolon correctly. A semicolon is used just like a period, but it is used to separate two complete sentences when the sentences are closely related in meaning.

This question is about the article "Bears are fatter than ever for Fat Bear Week"

Answer:

The phrase “We had the largest salmon run ever” shows Naomi Boak’s opinion of Fat Bear Week.

Explanation:

Naomi Boak is one of the forest guards that participates in the organization of Fat Bear Week, which states that because of the success of people willing to participate in Fat Bear Week and mainly because of the increase in weight of the bears, this was the biggest Fat Bear Week already seen. She believes that fatter bears have never been shown and this is probably due to the big salmon run that took place.
