Question

Read the sentence from a student's essay about "The Treasure of Lemon Brown."

Greg changes the way that he thinks about his father after he speaks with Lemon Brown.
What is the best way to revise this sentence?
O Greg has different feelings about his father after he speaks with Lemon Brown.
O Greg sees his father in a new way after he speaks with Lemon Brown.
O Greg knows what his father is all about after he speaks with Lemon Brown.
O Greg appreciates his father more after he speaks with Lemon Brown.​

Answer 1

Greg sees his father in a new way after he speaks with Lemon Brown.

Step-by-step explanation:

This statement shows that Greg has a notion about his father that changes when he speaks with Lemon Brown. He drops the old perspective of his father that he has on his head and picks up a new one.

Option A is incorrect because the statement does not mean that he "has different feelings about his father after speaking with Lemon Brown", rather, it means that he has a different feeling about him.

Options C and D are also incorrect because there is no sufficient evidence from the sentence that shows that Greg now appreciates his father more or knows all that his father is about.

Answer 2

Greg sees his father in a new way after he speaks with Lemon Brown

Step-by-step explanation:

From the sentence "Greg changes the way that he thinks about his father after he speaks with Lemon Brown.", the best way to revise the sentence would be that Greg sees his father in a new way after talking to Lemon Brown.

The term "seeing in a new way" means looking at something or someone in a completely different way than the view you had of the person/thing previously.
