Why don't journalism has a gender problem. Use the article to answer the question. What would happen if you reverse the order of paragraph three and four?

Question

a The extent of the problem would be lost on readers because they would not receive all the data
b The broader implications of an idea would be discussed before the reader understands what ideas
c The focus of the article which shifted from old statistics to trend in the industry
d The importance of the problem would be become clear because the worldwide impact would be centered sooner

Answer 1

To determine how reversing paragraphs three and four would affect the article's clarity and message, let's analyze the options given.

If paragraph three discusses specific ideas or statistics, and paragraph four expands on the broader implications of those ideas, reversing them would result in:

b The broader implications of an idea would be discussed before the reader understands what the ideas are.

This choice accurately reflects that if broader implications are addressed before providing the foundational ideas or data, readers may not fully grasp the significance of those implications. Therefore, option b is the correct answer.
