Which revision best maintains an academic style throughout?

English
1 answer:
melisa1 [442]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

D

Explanation:

An academic style should be formal, respectful, and objective. This means that the revision should be written well with correct grammar and not written like it is to a friend. The letter should also be kind to the recipient, especially because a favor is being asked of them. Also, subjective opinions should be left out of the writing.  

1) So the first answer is incorrect because it demands that the senator comes. This is disrespectful and not fit for the intended tone.

2) The second answer is also wrong because of the first sentence. It is informal. The writer should not "check and see" if they are free because it is a colloquial way of asking for someone's time.

3) Finally, the third answer is incorrect because the food is described subjectively and informally. "Vittles" and "to boot" are formal and show the author's opinion.

4) D is correct because it maintains the same academic style through the writing.

"Editha" by William Dean Howells is a story about characters who ritualistically follow the popular beliefs and norms of society
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

It was very low inside the house, and so dim, with the closed blinds, that they could scarcely see one another;

Her father standing decorously apart with his hat on his forearm, as at funerals; a woman rested in a deep arm-chair, and the woman who had let the strangers in stood behind the chair.

<em>Editha</em>, by William Dean Howells, is an antiwar story published in 1905. Its characters are people who greatly value custom and ritual, even when it is objectively inconvenient or awkward for them to do so.

The two chosen lines exemplify that character trait. In the first sentence, the house has the blinds closed, as was common for houses where the family had recently experienced a loss or a tragedy. This rule is followed, even though it meant that the characters were barely able to see each other.

The second sentence has a similar example, as Edith's father stands at a distance and with his hat in his hands. We are told this is the way it is done at funerals, which is consistent with the previous sentence and with the character's personality traits.
