And we're done selina's thesis will be more clearly established
- 00:29
if she revised his sentence for teo Say what And
- 00:33
here the potential answers let's kick this off by taking
- 00:37
another deep lookit sentenced for and senses around it all
- 00:41
right well the original structure is in great because all
- 00:43
it says is that electronics create health risks big wood
- 00:46
What it fails to say is how or what kind
- 00:49
of risks they create That makes the next sense about
- 00:53
recycling and seem a little out of place after all
- 00:55
If electronics are dangerous because they might zap you recycling
- 00:59
won't help Maybe you'd be better investing in a rubber
- 01:01
suit if this is your main concern all right choice
- 01:04
a and b won't work for the same reason Yeah

- 01:21

sounds awkward The following sentence three next choice see is
- 01:29
the best answer here it links to sentence Three by
- 01:32
mentioning that the elektronik are for gotten and it connects
- 01:35
that sentence five by saying that the electron its air
- 01:37
left to degrade in a landfill So this version of
- 01:40
the sentence builds the best bridge between three and five
- 01:43
creating a solid main idea Now excuse us while we
- 01:46
go Make sure our smartphones haven't become self aware you 00:01:49.141 --> [endTime] laugh But siri has been unusually sassy lately No
