Answer:

Revising and editing are the two tasks you undertake to significantly improve your essay. Both are very important elements of the writing process. You may think that a completed first draft means that little improvement is needed. However, even experienced writers need to improve their drafts and rely on peers during revising and editing. You may know that athletes miss catches, fumble balls, or overshoot goals. Dancers forget steps, turn too slowly, or miss beats. For both athletes and dancers, the more they practise, the stronger their performance will become. Web designers seek better images, a more clever design, or a more appealing background for their web pages. Writing has the same capacity to profit from improvement and revision.

You should revise and edit in stages: do not expect to catch everything in one go. If each time you review your essay you focus on a different aspect of construction, you will be more likely to catch any mistakes or identify any issues. Throughout this chapter, you will see a number of checklists containing specific things to look for with each revision. For example, you will first look at how the overall paper and your ideas are organized.

In the second section of this chapter, you will focus more on editing: correcting the mechanical issues. Also at the end of the chapter, you will see a comprehensive but more general list of things you should be looking for.Revising and editing allow you to examine two important aspects of your writing separately, so that you can give each task your undivided attention.

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

He had started to doubt himself, unsure of how and why the ghost had appeared and for what purpose.

Explanation:

Act I of William Shakespeare's tragic play "Hamlet" shows the young prince Hamlet meeting his dead father's ghost for the first time. And then came the revelation by the former King's ghost of how he had been murdered. This revelation took Hamlet by surprise but also made him vow to exact revenge on the culprit.

When Hamlet said "it is an honest ghost", he was fully sure of what he had been told by the ghost. But later on, he again said "The spirit that I have seen may be the devil", implying that he's starting to question the whole situation. Earlier, he had been so much consumed with grief about his father's death that when the ghost came, he was fully co-operative with the plan and the story. But later on, when he isn't with the ghost and had time to think more clearly, he began to doubt his own decision.

Write 5 in complete sentences Would you rather have super sensitive taste buds or super sensitive hearing?

Darina [25.2K]

I would rather have super sensitive taste because, it would be fun tasting spicy foods and sour foods. I also believe that super sensitive hearing could be very painful. I don’t think that having super sensitive tasting would be painful so that’s another reason I would prefer it.

The correct answers are "mutual fund", "money market", "real state", and "Stock".

All of these are forms of investment with varying volatility and there, risk.
