Which statement below is an example of an objective summary? a. a lawyer defends an innocent man and wins the trial b. teachers are often burnt out and tired of the classroom. c. children need to grow up and realize it's a tough world. d. education is more important than professional success.

The statement that is an example of an objective summary is D: Education is more important than professional success.

Explanation:

I chose D because we, as individuals part of a society, can easily understand how it is more important to have a complete education than to be successful professionally. Education gives us the tools not only for our professional future, but also for life. Besides this, by having a complete education we will be able to have more opportunities. Also, education lasts forever and success comes and goes; sometimes we, grown ups, can feel successful in a determined time of our professional lives, and then we might lose our jobs because of social-economic or even personal reasons. If this happens, we would have to start all over again, but our education and experience will remain, and that is what gives us the possibility of finding a new job and try to feel successful again. Education remains, while professional success is unstable.

a. "to practice" is the best phrase to complete the sentence.

explanation:

(note that : all the other options "the practicing of", "practice for" and "to do a practice on" are inappropriate as they make the sentence grammatically incorrect.)
