12) The best answer for organization, clarity, and sentence construction to replace sentence number 6 and provide a better thesis statement is: "However, voting is important if we wish to see improvements made in our country." This answer is the most suitable choice because it directly addresses the importance of voting in order to bring about positive changes in the country.
13) In paragraph 2 (sentences 7-16), the sentence that should be deleted is Sentence 11. This sentence introduces the idea of making informed choices while voting, which is already explained in the following sentences, particularly Sentence 12 and Sentence 13. Deleting Sentence 11 will improve the clarity and eliminate the redundancy of information.
14) For better organization, Sentence 9 needs to be moved to the first paragraph (sentences 1-6) following Sentence 3. This allows for a logical progression in the essay. In the first paragraph, Sentence 3 discusses the right to vote for leaders, and Sentence 9 elaborates on the importance of spending time investigating political parties and candidates, which aligns with the topic introduced in Sentence 3.
15) Sentence 12 has a pronoun-antecedent disagreement, and "their" should be changed to "his or her." This change ensures that the pronoun agrees with the singular antecedent "a person" in Sentence 12.
16) The meaning of Sentence 13 is unclear, and the words "his or her" should be changed to "their." This change provides a clear reference to the candidates, indicating that their motives and agendas are challenging to discern.
17) The correct way to write sentence 21 is: "This is a huge number of people who were either too busy, unconcerned, or confused, and who definitely give a message about honoring our democratic freedoms." This sentence maintains clarity and grammatical correctness while expressing the intended meaning.
18) The most effective way to combine sentences 23, 24, and 25 is: "Therefore, this lack of interest over the last 50 years has caused many problems in our nation: an unimaginable national debt, high unemployment, and schools and institutions in financial ruin." This combination ensures a smoother flow of ideas and maintains the cause-and-effect relationship between the lack of interest and the resulting problems in the nation.
19) The correct revision of sentence 26 is: "Retirement and the American Dream are dwindling away as aging Americans, eagerly waiting to rest or travel, cannot retire anymore." This revision maintains the coherence of the sentence and ensures that the intended meaning is properly conveyed.
20) The most effective way to write sentence 27 is: "If more people were interested, we could clean up our political systems, help the needy in poverty and crime-laden neighborhoods, and make the world a better place." This revised sentence maintains parallel structure and clarity, expressing the potential positive outcomes if more people show interest in contributing to societal improvements.
