on dh digested it Which of the following represents the
best revision to sentence six and hear the pendulum Sentence
six his issue is that it goes right into the
information about stalin without giving us a transition from the
material about hitler So that's just a jarring What we
need is a sentence that takes us from the horrors
of hitler to the terrors of stalin in a nice
and easy way Hard to imagine such a thing is
possible Yeah but let's give it a shot will be
makes an attempt to do this but the phrasing is
awkward and all over the place There's just got to
be a choice that's more straight forward than in this
mess right here Well option a is straightforward but it
makes for a really awkward transition Simply throwing the word
also at the beginning of the sentence isn't going to
smooth out this bumpy ride Well see sort of works
let's read it to compare hitler to stalin Joseph stalin
was the dictator of the ussr now russia who ruled
with an iron fist But the phrase to compare hitler
to stalin is a clunky way of transitioning anytime we

calling attention to the fact that we're not going To
sound all that smooth would we start a new paragraph
by saying to begin a new paragraph No we just
begin a new paragraph Writing an essay is just like
dating and always basically smooth All right all right Choice
dee is the right answer It clearly transitions from hitler
to stalin while comparing the two dictators most famous wrongs
Now that's smooth the sentence structure not evil dictator stuff 00:01:45.856 --> [endTime] I kill you
