Answer:

"debris-choked".

Explanation:

In the given passage, the speaker/ author presents the difference between the Glen Canyon and Lake Powell. This contrasting image/ description is made in such a way that the difference is felt and projects a drastic image.

The comparison of these reservoirs is so drastic that the author uses life and death to compare it. While <em>"Glen Canyon was alive. Lake Powell is a graveyard." </em>And the one phrase that best contributes to the author's sad tone is<em> "debris-choked",</em> which presents an image of a place that is dying, or on the verge of death.

Read the passage.
Crazy boy [7]

I would have to say that the best way to revise sentence four is by changing "aren't" and "they're" to "are not" and "they are."

"Argue" works better than "fight."

Deleting the entire sentence would remove the transition into cost efficiency of the tablets.

And moving the sentence to the end would place the transition to cost efficiency in the wrong place.
