Answer:

My little sister wants to work in television news when she grows up,  because she says it's a way to affect people's lives.

Explanation:

In grammar, the use of correct tenses, as well as the spellings and punctuation, are all part of the 'error detection and elimination' process. This means that a check in the spelling and punctuation used will ensure that any sentence is correct and constructed.

In the given original sentence, the spelling error is found in the word "its". Here, the word "its" should be replaced with "it's", referring to the "it is" in the contracted form. This is because the word "it is" refers to the act of working in the television news.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Is the destruction of public property, such as statues, ever justifiable? Why/why not?
Arisa [49]

Hope this is sort of what you were going for! :)

The destruction of any public property, be it statues or historical buildings, is completely unjustifiable. Not only does destroying these artifacts not benefit anyone, but it hurts countless people. From public workers, who'd have to either rebuild or clean up the destroyed property, to people with connections to the monuments having to deal with the losses, no one is benefited by blatant acts of destruction such as these. And, arguably, not even those who commit them.

The sentence below summarizes an article in the print edition of the ESPN The Magazine. Which version avoids plagiarism by using
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

d) The Waffle House restaurant chain serves as neutral territory where fans of opposing teams can bond over a shared love of personalized hash browns (Wilson, 2017).

Explanation:

When a summary is involved, the APA style for citation always follows the format where only the author's last name and the year of publication of the source are included in the in-text citation. This explains why (Wilson, 2017) the proper APA in-text citation format is. The only time the page number after the year of publication must be included in the in-text citation is when there is a direct quote. However, because the sentence simply summarizes an article from the print edition of ESPN The Magazine and is not a direct quote, the page number is not required. As a result, the correct sentence is: The Waffle House restaurant chain serves as a neutral territory where opposing team fans can bond over a shared love of personalized hash browns (Wilson, 2017).
