DIRECTION: Paraphrase the following.


1. For many people across Europe, the introduction of the Euro has led to price rises in many
everyday goods.
PARAPHRASED:

2. Women have traditionally been seen as mothers and home makers and it is only in recent years
that they have been making significant inroads into the job market. There is still a long way to go
before they achieve complete equality with men but the situation has definitely improved.
PARAPHRASED:

3. In the 1920s, an American academic, Elton Mayo, researched the effects of the physical
environment on the productivity of workers. The result, known as the Hawthorne Studies, named
after the electrics company where it took place, showed that workers could be motivated to work
harder by making small changes to the workplace, such as altering the lighting or the layout of a
room.
PARAPHRASED:

4. Organic foods are said to be healthier because they are grown without pesticides, radiation, or
genetic mutations that most non-organic food contains. Non-organic foods are often injected
with hormones and dyes, which jeopardize the quality of the food.
PARAPHRASED:

5. Faith is deep-rooted in the expectation of good things to come. It goes beyond hope. It can’t be
explained away by reason or logic or be understood through a single dimension. While life can be hard at
the best of times, faith is the knowledge, deep down inside, that things will get better.
