What is an example of local revision

English

Answer:

b. taking out an awkward phrase

Explanation:

Option B is an example of local revision.

Local revision is known to deal more with sentence-level revision. In this type, words are changed in order to make a sentence clearer, grammatical or spelling errors are correcting, awkward phrases or clauses are removed, etc.

Another type of revision is global revision. This type focuses on the big picture of the whole work;  the ideas, audience, analysis, organization, etc.  

Allyn & Bacon Guide to Writing Concise Edition stated, ""You revise locally whenever you make changes to a text that affect only the one or two sentences that you are currently working on. In contrast, you revise globally when a change in one part of your draft drives changes in other parts of the draft"

Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.

<u>Did you start</u> to work at school in 2001?

I <u>drink</u> coffee every morning.

The next train <u>is leaving</u> this evening at 17:00.

Explanation:

Simple present or present indefinite tense is employed to denote universal truths, habitual/regular actions, and the present actions. It is formed using 'sub + V1 + s/es with 3rd person singular.' While present continuous tense is employed to denote the ongoing action in the present and formed by using 'sub + is/am/are + V1 + ing.' Past simple tense is used to describe the completed actions or past events that took place at a specific point of time in the past and thus, it uses 'sub + V2.' Past continuous tense is used to denote the actions that began at particular point of time in the past and were in continuity in the past. It uses 'sub + was/were + V1 + ing.' These tenses have correctly been employed to fill the above sentences.
