INSTRUCTIONS: Read the paragraph and answer the questions that follow.   How to Pack a Suitcase   Most people take big suitcases when they travel because they do not really know how to pack. The first mistake that most people make is this: They fold their clothes. However, clothes should not be folded. Instead, they should be rolled up like little sausages. When clothes are rolled up, the amount of space needed is significantly reduced. In addition, unlike folded clothes, rolled clothes do not look messy after unpacking them. The next mistake people make is that they bring too many clothes, and especially, too many shoes. Most people do not need more than three pairs of shoes on any trip. It is best to wear the heaviest pair and pack the other two pairs. Most suitcases are too heavy to carry on a plane. Be sure to use the space inside each shoe to pack small items, for example, socks, gloves, sunglasses, or small electronic devices. Finally, people should think about the trip before they start packing. They should ask themselves, “What will I need first? What clothes will I need later in the trip?” The items needed at the beginning of the trip should be packed on top. Following these suggestions for packing will make any trip easier and more enjoyable!   What is the purpose of the paragraph?  What is the topic sentence?  What transitional words and phrases does the writer use to introduce each of the supporting ideas?  Which sentence does not maintain the unity of the paragraph?  Is the concluding sentence a restatement, a suggestion, or a prediction?

Directions: Read the paragraph. Each underlined pronoun is an unclear reference. Replace the unclear reference with a clear reference. Write and number your answers for clarity.   Many cities have decided to create shared bicycle programs. 1They allow people to rent a bicycle for a short time and then return it. Shared bicycle programs offer advantages to both tourists and city residents. 2They can rent bicycles to see the city when they visit. 3It is easier and cheaper than renting a car. However, it is faster than walking, so they can see more of the city. City residents can use 4them on their journey to work every day. How? The closest subway station may be too far from their homes, so they drive to work. This means that they have to sit in traffic and find a parking space. With a shared bicycle program, they can just ride a bicycle to 5it and then take the subway to work. Shared bicycle programs are a wonderful addition to any city—and one that is beneficial to both visitors and residents alike.
