Sample Practice Problems

Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 9.44 Organization and Cohesion skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Read the paragraph. “The author first explains that electric buses reduce exhaust near schools. Next, she notes that charging stations can be expensive. Similarly, she argues that grant funding could help districts manage the transition.” Which revision diagnosis best addresses its organization or cohesion problem?

AThe sequence marker “Next” must always be removed.

BThe paragraph has no connection to electric buses.

CThe grant detail should appear in a footnote only.

D“Similarly” is imprecise because grant funding responds to the cost problem rather than simply matching it.

Solution & Explanation:A transition such as “To address this concern” would show how the funding idea responds to the expense.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Read the paragraph. “A school garden can support biology lessons. It can also provide herbs for the culinary program. In conclusion, the garden requires soil, sunlight, and water.” Which revision diagnosis best addresses its organization or cohesion problem?

AThe paragraph contains too many transitions.

BThe culinary-program detail is unrelated to school gardens.

CThe concluding sentence introduces basic background instead of synthesizing the paragraph’s main benefits.

DThe first sentence should be removed because it is a claim.

Solution & Explanation:A stronger conclusion would connect the biology and culinary benefits rather than add a new list of requirements.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Read the paragraph. “The new schedule creates a longer advisory period. For example, students could use the time to meet with teachers, organize assignments, or begin homework. On the other hand, these uses show that advisory can support academic planning.” Which revision diagnosis best addresses its organization or cohesion problem?

AThe examples do not relate to advisory period.

B“On the other hand” should be replaced because the last sentence summarizes support rather than introduces an opposing view.

CThe final sentence should introduce a completely new topic.

DThe paragraph needs no transitions because it is short.

Solution & Explanation:The final sentence draws a conclusion from the examples, so a transition such as “Together” would be more cohesive.
