Question: Read the following paragraph. The neighbor's dog got into our yard again. It walked through my father's garden and destroyed his plants. Then, it dug a hole in the middle of our yard. My father is very unhappy. Which revision improves and highlights the writer's voice? A. The neighbor's dog, the big one, got into our yard and it walked all through my father's garden, destroying his plants. Then, it dug a hole in the middle of our yard. My father is sad. B. We have to do something about our neighbor's high–strung dog. It journeyed into our yard and destroyed my distraught father's garden. That dog is worse than a burglar. C. Our neighbor's dog is very destructive. He got into our yard and he destroyed my father's garden. Then he dug a hole in our yard making my father very unhappy. D. My father is really, really unhappy. The neighbor's dog got into our yard and destroyed his garden. Then he dug a hole. This happened before.
The best answer is **B**. **Explanation:** Option B improves and highlights the writer's voice the most. It uses expressive language ("We have to do something about...," "journeyed into our yard," "destroyed my distraught father's garden," "That dog is worse than a burglar") that shows the writer's personality and emotional reaction to the situation, which is what is meant by "writer's voice." The vivid descriptions and opinionated tone make the narrative more engaging and distinct. The other options are either too plain (A, C, D), lack emotion, or don't show as much personality. Option B stands out for its strong, personal, and expressive voice.
