Which strategy best represents one way a writer can keep readers engaged?
vladimir1956 [14]

The strategy best represents one way a writer can keep readers engaged is providing transitions for shifts in topic, mood, and time.

<h3>What is writing?</h3>

The primary goal of writing is to inform the reader in a clear and understandable manner.

Any writing style used by the writer must be solely for the purpose of educating the readers.

Transitional words are used by writers to indicate a change in a previously discussed topic or idea.

Thus, the correct option is B. Move the narrative along as fast as possible.

Which of the following sentences use apostrophes correctly? Check all that apply.
olasank [31]

Answer:

B). The team’s report wasn’t due until next Friday, but it was turned in early.

C). Jack wasn’t hired in December ’07; he was hired in January ’08.

Explanation:

The apostrophe (') is demonstrated as the punctuation mark that is either employed to show the contraction or omission of numbers or letters or to reflect the possession.

As per the question, options B and C employ the apostrophe correctly as they correctly show the possession of the report of the team as 'team's report' and contraction of auxiliary verb 'was not' as 'wasn't'(omission of the letter 'o'). The first option is incorrect as it wrongly displays the use of possession(for words ending with letter 's') and the last option must include a contraction('it's) instead of possession. Thus, <u>options B and C</u> are the correct answers.
