Question

rearrange the sentence below to remove any wordy sections. do not change the sentences meaning. this thesis statement is based on matilda by roald dahl. your answer mrs. phelps is the most influential person in matildas life on the grounds that she gives the young girl access to books. word menu - drag any unnecessary words here. because

Explanation:

To make the sentence concise while preserving meaning, we replace the wordy "on the grounds that" with the more concise "because". We then arrange the words in a grammatically correct order. The original sentence parts are "Mrs. Phelps is the most influential person in Matilda's life", the reason indicator (now "because" instead of "on the grounds that"), and "she gives the young girl access to books". Combining these with the replacement gives the concise sentence.

Answer:

Mrs. Phelps is the most influential person in Matilda's life because she gives the young girl access to books.
