Answer:
The answer is option D.
Explanation:
A modifier expression is a gathering of words that depict a thing or pronoun in a sentence. The descriptive word in a modifier expression can show up toward the begin, end, or amidst the expression. The descriptive word expression can be set previously, or after, the thing or pronoun in the sentence. Lexicons for the most part mark "how" as a qualifier, however one gets into troubles when one needs to demonstrate that it is a verb modifier. Qualifiers adjust a few other word classes as verbs, descriptors, intensifiers, even sentences. The most straightforward meaning of a descriptor is that it is a word that portrays or illuminates a thing. Descriptors portray things by giving some data around a protest's size, shape, age, shading, inception or material. It's a major table.
Answer:
The best effective thesis statements are both the first ("Hollembeak's review of the high school's play is fun and entertaining to read") and third ("In her editorial, Mellie writes convincingly of the need for high school classes to begin later in the morning") options.
Explanation:
The first and third statements are the only ones which state a convincing thesis about an argument. Both of them are informative about what is the object argued and present a clear idea of the main point made on that. Second option does not apply to the question because it is lacking in some way, because though it is informative and sets an idea of the argument, it is very broad to state "the play's action [is] in the 21st century". Fourth option does apply to the question as well because it is not a thesis, that is just exploring the content of an argument made, clarifying ideas for readers. And fifth option does not apply to the question too, because it is not a thesis, that is just a description of an information previously given, it only characterizes an informative statement, not an effective thesis.

This is the better revision because the word choice is more specific to the topic of the letter. Also, the more professional tone distances herself from the manager and gives more her more authority. The original sentence sounds too informal. This would be problematic because the audience of the letter may see the author as whiny and complaining instead of a person who should be taken seriously and worth listening to.
