Rockefeller formed Standard Oil Trust and monopolized 90 percent of the oil industry. (3) Critics argue that merging smaller companies into one large company creates stronger corporations. (4) However, having just one strong corporation can lead to corruption. (5) In the case of Standard Oil Trust, the company was accused of bullying smaller businesses and competitors. (6) One unfortunate outcome of the Industrial Revolution was the creation of monopolies. What change in organization should Misaki make when she revises the paragraph? Sentence 2 should be the first sentence. Sentence 3 should be the last sentence. Sentence 4 should be the last sentence. Sentence 6 should be the first sentence.

Kylie Herring · Answer 1

Sentence 6 should be the first sentence is the correct answer.

Explanation:

As written in the question, the paragraph that Misaki wrote seems to begin in the middle of a discussion. If the writer moved sentence number 6 to the beginning, readers would be introduced to the discussion, meaning that the paragraph wouldn't start in the middle of it, so the last option is the correct answer.

Phoenix Gallegos · Answer 2

Sentence 6 should be the first.

Explanation:

One unfortunate outcome of the Industrial Revolution was the creation of monopolies.
