Reread the prompt and response below. Then, revise the response so that it better addresses the purpose and audience. Prompt:
Your city is considering whether to implement a ban on all single-use plastic bags. Write a letter to your city newspaper that fairly presents both sides of the policy so that citizens are better informed and can decide whether to support the policy.

Response:
The city should implement a plastic bag ban because it would deter people from thoughtlessly using disposable bags that are harmful to the environment. Every year hundreds of millions of bags end up in the Atlantic Ocean, causing harm to countless marine species. The problem is, many plastic bags contain lead, which is toxic to animal life. A common argument against the banning of plastic bags is that they are easy to recycle, and therefore not harmful to the environment, but come on, are people actually recycling them? Not really. There's a study that said only about 12 percent of them were recycled. The rest are being tossed out, which is no good for the oceans.

Ineed . read the passage, and choose the three (3) inferences that are most firmly based on the given information. your sister has a new boyfriend. the first time you meet him, he corners you and talks to you for an hour about football, a subject in which you have no interest at all. you come away with the impression that he is an inconsiderate bore. the next two times you see him, however, he says not a word about football. he participates in the general conversation and makes some witty and intelligent remarks. what is your impression of him now? do you find him likable and interesting on the basis of the last two encounters? do you average out the early minus and the later plus and come out with a neutral zero? neither is likely. what is likely is that you still think of him as an inconsiderate bore. psychological research suggests that first impressions, as our mothers and fathers told us, are quite lasting. 1. the words “neutral zero” refer to an impression that is positive. 2. the words “neutral zero” refer to an impression that is neither positivenor negative. 3. the selection suggests that it’s a good idea to make good firstimpressions. 4. the selection suggests that it can be difficult to remain objective aboutothers. 5. first impressions tend to be fair and balance
