Question

Which option was used to revise this ​sentence? I studied hard and did well on the exam. Because I studied​ hard, I did well on the exam. A. reversed the order of subject and verb B. changed to a​ question, exclamation, or command C. added introductory words or phrases D. moved parts of the sentence around

Answer 1

Answer:

C). Added introductory words or phrases.

Explanation:

Introductory words or phrases are described as the adverbs or interjections that are primarily employed to introduce a sentence in order to establish connectivity between the ideas and ensure a smooth transition.

In the given sentence, 'introductory words or phrases' have been added to revise the sentence. The introductory word 'because' functions to link the two ideas(I studied hard and I did well on the exam') together in a cause-and-effect structure. It converts the first clause('I studied hard') into a 'dependent clause'('Because I studied​ hard') that is setting the stage for main clause to ensure a smooth transition between ideas and enhance its efficacy. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
