Question

Read the paragraph. (1) Military veterans face challenges. (2) They must find work after being out of the civilian labor market for several years. (3) Veterans have to develop their interviewing and résumé-writing skills. (4) Some navy veterans served on warships, while others may have had duties onshore. Which sentence should be eliminated to improve unity of the paragraph?

Answer 1

To improve the unity of the sentence, sentence 4 should be eliminated.

Answer 2

(4) Some navy veterans served on warships, while others may have had duties onshore.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sentence 4 should be eliminated in order to improve the unity of the paragraph. Sentences 1 to 3 discuss the challenges that veterans face when they have to return to the workforce. These include developing their interviewing skills and their resume-writing skills. It also includes finding work after being out of the labor market for several years. However, sentence 4 does not discuss the challenges faced by veterans, which makes it irrelevant to the paragraph.
