Answer 1

The three correct answers are:

- Standard textbook English: Formal writing typically uses proper grammar and follows the standard rules of the English language.
- Complex syntax: Formal writing often employs more complex sentence structures and avoids simple or straightforward language.
- Advanced vocabulary: Formal writing favors more sophisticated and specific word choices rather than using casual or colloquial language.
