Instructions: Revise each of the sentences below in three or four ways. Use principles you have learned to make changes; for example, change voice (active or passive), turn nominals into verbs or verbs into nominals, change the point of view, and add or eliminate redundancy. You may even add words to improve the tone (such as words of appreciation or apology) or turn one sentence into two sentences.
As you work through these sentences, analyze the changes you are making. Be creative; your goal is variety, not clarity.
