The correct answer is C) Words can have many different meanings, and the information age has created many new meanings for words.

With the raise of new technology and new forms of communication, technological terms were invented, giving some existing words a double meaning. This can be confusing for someone that didn't grow up with the internet, and someone from the Internet Age would be confused if you told them that monitor is also a type of lizard.

Which revision should be made to this paragraph? "Finally" should be added to the beginning of sentence 1. In sentence 2, "furth
anyanavicka [17]

This question is missing the paragraph. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Read the paragraph.

(1) Wordsworth believed that poetry should include emotional experiences, and his poem "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" includes several of these experiences. (2) Furthermore, the speaker encounters a field of daffodils that he describes as "jocund company." (3) Later, as the speaker reflects on seeing the cheerful daffodils, he says the memory gives him great joy. (4) The speaker realizes that the memory of the flowers provides a more powerful emotional experience than the experience itself did.

Which revision should be made to this paragraph?

-"Finally" should be added to the beginning of sentence 1.

-In sentence 2, "furthermore" should be changed to "specifically."

-In sentence 3, "later" should be changed to "therefore."

-"Moreover" should be added to the beginning of  sentence 4.

Answer:

The revision that should be made is -In sentence 2, "furthermore" should be changed to "specifically."

Explanation:

"Furthermore" is an adverb used to add information related to what was previously stated. However, it is inappropriately used in sentence 2. Sentence 2 is specifying one of the experiences included by the poet in his writing. It would be better, therefore, to use "specifically", since we are not really adding, but explaining in a more specific manner what was said in sentence 1. The change would be:

(1) Wordsworth believed that poetry should include emotional experiences, and his poem "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" includes several of these experiences. (2) Specifically, the speaker encounters a field of daffodils that he describes as "jocund company."
