Here is your activity for this today — I want to see your answers in the comments below.
I am going to give you one sentence from an academic text. Your job is to rewrite it THREE times using completely different vocabulary — same meaning, different words. No word from the original sentence may appear in your paraphrase.
Original sentence:
"Governments worldwide are implementing stricter regulations to combat the growing problem of plastic pollution in the world's oceans."
Rules:
— No word from the original may be used
— All three versions must mean exactly the same thing
— You have until Friday
Why this matters: Paraphrase is a two-way skill. When you can CREATE paraphrases, you automatically get better at RECOGNISING them in exam conditions. This is the single fastest way to improve your Reading score — and your Writing score at the same time.
Post your three versions below. I will read every single one and tell you which version is strongest and why. The best paraphrase of the week gets pinned to the top of the community feed.
See you in the comments. 👇
