A, B, and C are all goals that Mrs Jones can hope to accomplish with her letter. 

D is  not correct because a letter isn't capable of forcing people to agree with her.

Through a letter she can reach many people in the town--some of those might be people who appreciate historical buildings and others might be people who also love the library. These people might be inspired to also speak out against building the hotel. Additionally, if the hotel owners see that the building is important to people in the town they might be willing to adapt their plans.

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The sentence that paraphrases the source information correctly is B. The number of American mothers working outside the home has  doubled since 1975 (Schlosser 4).

Explanation:

A paraphrase consists of rewording something that was said by someone else. That is, we say the exact same thing but with different words. We must remember to give due credit to the original speaker or writer of the passage we are paraphrasing.

In the case we are studying here, we can easily eliminate A, C, and D. They are not attempting to paraphrase, but to quote. Quotes maintain the original words and structures used by the speaker/author. In letter D, they have tried to pretend to be paraphrasing by not using quotation marks and by changing the spelling of numbers. Still, the sentences are the same, nothing has changed.

The only option that truly paraphrases the source information is letter D. It offers the same facts with fewer and different words. It mentions the original author, but does not copy his words. Thus, we can safely choose letter B as our answer.
