Planning and Writing an Effective Informational Essay

Question 2 • ELA 10B - 2023

Read a sentence from Lucia's essay.Sibling dynamics in competitive environments can significantly impact personal growth and self-perception, as illustrated by Andrés and Daniel's experiences in basketball.Which revision makes Lucia's sentence more precise?

Answer
A
"Sibling dynamics in certain environments…"
B
"…can impact personal growth and self-perception…"
C
"…as illustrated by Andrés and Daniel's contrasting experiences…"
D
"… experiences in the basketball game."

Explanation

“Competitive environments” and “personal growth and self-perception” are already fairly specific, but the sentence does not explain how Andrés and Daniel’s experiences differ. Adding “contrasting” makes that relationship clearer and more precise. The revision “as illustrated by Andrés and Daniel’s contrasting experiences” is therefore the best choice.
