Answer

Brief Explanations:

For question 29, the sentence about describing memories in detail fits best at Point C in Paragraph 3 as it relates to the context of writing and memory in that part of the passage. For question 30, the essay focuses on one - writer's experience rather than various difficulties of writers, so the answer is no. For questions 31 - 35:

  • 31: The correct punctuation is a comma after "pharmacist" to separate the appositive "Dr. John S. Pemberton".
  • 32: "those who" is the correct relative - clause construction.
  • 33: "designing" is the most concise and correct way to express the action.
  • 34: "first" is the appropriate word to indicate the initial servings.
  • 35: Option D is the most grammatically correct and clear way to express the sequence of events.
