Which statement best summarizes "Save the Coral Reefs”? Coral reefs are a very important component of the ocean’s ecosystem beca

use they support sea life, such as crabs and sea turtles. In fact, over four thousand species depend on the survival of the reefs, which are being destroyed by bleaching. More must be done immediately to save the reefs. Development along the coastal regions has significant negative effects on coral reefs. The reefs are an essential part of the ocean’s ecosystem, and when people build structures on top of them, they are easily damaged because they are so fragile. We should limit construction along the coast to protect the reefs. Construction along the coasts, overfishing, and bleaching have seriously damaged the world’s coral reefs. Since reefs are a very important part of the ocean’s ecosystem, their destruction has a devastating environmental impact, and we must work to protect them. Coral reefs are fragile structures made of limestone. People who build in coastal regions and others who overfish our seas must be stopped, because they don’t care about all the species that rely on the survival of reefs, such as sea turtles, clownfish, lobster, sharks, and crabs.

Read the essay "Love Thy Garden." Then rewrite the essay to improve the flow between sentences as well as between the paragraphs
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Love Thy Garden

Most of us associate gardening with our <u>grandparents</u>, with <u>people recovering </u>from an illness, or <u>with older folks</u> gently tending to rows of hydrangeas and tomatoes. <u>Of course,</u> it is not something <u>young </u>people do, right? <u>However</u>, an increasing number of young adults and kids are getting into small-scale farming or gardening. <u>This happens because</u> schools across the country have initiated programs that involve working <u>not only in gardens but also in small community farms.</u> <u>For example,</u> The Edible Schoolyard Project, <u>which was created in 2005 by Alice waters,</u> makes farming fun for young people. <u>In the beginning,</u> Alice wanted to transform a vacant lot into an edible kitchen in her neighborhood school. <u>After 2005</u>, the project blossomed into a nationwide campaign to involve kids in the food-growing and production process. The program lets school kids of varying ages grow <u>their </u>fruits and vegetables. <u>Then</u>, it teaches them interesting and simple recipes. <u>Can you imagine the joy kids experience in every stage when growing their food? First</u>, they plant the seed. <u>Then</u>, they watch the plant grow <u>as </u>they take care of it. <u>Finally</u>, they pick the fruits and eat them. <u>Besides</u>, farming has other benefits<u>:</u> it relieves stress and it helps kids stay fit and connect with the community. Gardening or farming can <u>also </u>be fun for adults and teenagers. <u>Thus</u>, people of all ages can enjoy it.

Explanation

  • Grandparents: unification of the concept grandpas and grandmas to get a shorter sentence.
  • Sentence 1: Since the first three sentences are closely related, the text flows better by linking them. The repetition of the preposition "with" gives the text a poetical aspect.
  • people recovering from an illness/with older folks gently tending to rows of hydrangeas and tomatoes: omission of the expressions "who are"/"We have seen" to make the sentence shorter.
  • Of course: to emphasize the claim.
  • Young people instead of younger because there is not a comparison between two elements in the same sentence.
  • It is not instead of it isn´t since it should be formal as it may be an academic text.
  • However: connector to show an opposition between two ideas.
  • This happens because: phrase to link the cause and the effect.
  • not only in gardens but also in small community farms: not only but also to show addition.
  • For example: to introduce an instance of the previous idea.
  • , which was created in 2005 by Alice waters, : use of a relative clause to characterize the previous pronoun.
  • In the beginning/ After 2005: connectors to show the before and after of the project.
  • neighborhood school instead of a school in her neighborhood to make the sentence less complex.
  • The omission of "own" because it is redundant.
  • Then: connector of time to show that the idea follows the food-growing process.
  • as: to show simoultaneous ideas
  • Can you imagine the joy kids experience in every stage when growing their food?: use of a question to invite the reader to think and make him/her feel part of the text.
  • First/then/finally: connectors to show the chronological order of processes.
  • Besides: to add a new idea
  • use of colon: to introduce a list of equal elements
  • also: to show the idea of addition, inclusion
  • Thus: connector to show a consequence of the previous statement
