Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 12.29 Advanced Vocabulary and Rhetorical Terms skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Draft executive summary (audience: nonprofit board): “Over the past decade, our tutoring program served 1,200 students. We used a quasi-experimental design with propensity score matching to estimate impact. Attendance improved by 9%, and course failures dropped by 6%. The model’s standard errors were calculated with robust methods.”

Which revision best matches the board audience and improves organization?

ALead with the key outcomes (attendance and failures), briefly note that a rigorous comparison method was used, and move technical terms (like propensity scores and standard errors) to an appendix or full report.

BExpand the statistical methods section to show credibility.

CKeep the summary as is; boards prefer technical detail.

DRemove the results and keep only the methods.

Solution & Explanation:Board summaries should highlight bottom-line outcomes first and keep methods readable. The correct choice preserves credibility by noting rigor while relocating technical detail to a place appropriate for specialists.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A student is revising an essay for a skeptical audience. Draft claim: “Community colleges are better than universities.”

Which revision best improves audience awareness and argumentative effectiveness?

AUniversities are terrible and overpriced.

BCommunity colleges are better, and anyone who disagrees is wrong.

CFor students balancing cost and flexibility, community colleges can offer strong instruction and transfer pathways, though universities may provide more residential resources.

DCommunity colleges are better because they are better.

Solution & Explanation:The correct choice narrows the claim to conditions, acknowledges limitations, and avoids absolutist language, which is more persuasive for skeptical readers.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A writer wants to keep parallel structure in a sentence listing goals: Draft: “The project aims to reduce costs, improving safety, and it will increase transparency.”

Which revision best maintains parallel structure?

AThe project aims to reduce costs, safety improves, and transparency will increase.

BThe project aims cost reduction, safety, and transparent.

CThe project aims to reduce costs, to improve safety, and to increase transparency.

DThe project aims reducing costs, improving safety, and it will increase transparency.

Solution & Explanation:Parallel structure requires matching grammatical forms. The correct choice uses three infinitive phrases (“to reduce,” “to improve,” “to increase”) for consistency.
