Carmen wrote the following sentence: It is important that each employee provide his RSVP
  for the company picnic. How can she revise her sentence to make it stronger?
 
  a. Replace his with a pronoun that is more specific.
  b. Revise so there is no pronoun shift.
  c. Revise so the subject is not repeated.
  d Replace his with an indefinite pronoun.
  e. Replace his with his or her so the pronoun and antecedent agree in number.

Question 2

  not consistent in person.
