Explanation:

To clarify a sentence well, one should make more clear and shorter without removing any important ideas. The only option that does this well is option A. Option A makes sense and is much shorter than the original. It does this while maintaining the main 3 ideas. Those ideas are that students can develop typing skills, technology skills, and prepare for jobs. The last three options leave out at least one of these. So, even if they all make sense, the first option is the best.

A

Explanation:

to eliminate ambiguous remote or broad reference it is necessary to focus on anaphoric reference. by definition "anaphoric reference means that a word in a text refers back to other ideas in the text for its meaning." the references should be clear and leave no room for ambiguity.

in the first case the pronoun it probably refers to the car but it has not been mentioned before so we should replace it for the car. in doing so the statement becomes clear.

in sentence number   two   the pronoun he refers to charles dickens the author. yet, the first half of the sentence is about the book a tale of two cities. to repair this it would be better to rephrase the first half : after i read   a tale of two cities by dickens, he so as to remove the remote reference.
