Final answer:
To use unbiased language in the sentence about Shanelle Rodriguez, we should refer to her as "Dr. Shanelle Rodriguez." This emphasizes her professional title without implying bias related to gender.
Step-by-step explanation:
To revise the sentence "Shanelle Rodriguez is a doctor specializing in sports medicine, and her clients include some of the most famous athletes in the world" with unbiased language, we should choose option (b) which says, change "Shanelle Rodriguez" to "Dr. Shanelle Rodriguez". This recognizes her professional title and avoids any potential gender bias regarding her qualifications and the respect she deserves in her field. The other options do not address biased language regarding gender or professional respect. It is important to avoid gender bias and use gender-neutral language where possible or clarify a person's professional title.
Here are three example revisions for other sentences that eliminate gender bias:
- Each doctor will explain their own procedures.
- When you call the technician, tell them the computer broke yesterday.
- If I ever meet a congressperson, I will tell them how upset I am with politics at the national level.
These examples demonstrate the use of plural pronouns or revision of sentences to remove gender-specific language.
