Answer 1

The paraphrase uses several strategies:* **Synonyms:** "Safe and effective" becomes "safety and effectiveness." While not strict synonyms, the meaning is preserved by switching to noun forms of the adjectives. "Declared measles-free" is paraphrased as "no reported Canadian cases of measles."* **Word/Phrase Order:** The original mentions the vaccine first, then the outcome (measles-free). The paraphrase inverts this, leading with the absence of measles and then attributing it to the vaccine.* **Sentence Structure/Sentence Type:** The original uses two shorter sentences connected by "Because of." The paraphrase combines these into a single, more complex sentence using the phrase "Due to."* **Referents:** "Canada was declared measles-free" becomes "no reported Canadian cases of measles." This shifts from a statement of declaration to a description of the situation. It's a subtle shift in referent, focusing on the lack of cases rather than the official declaration.
