Excerpt from Michelangelo and the Sistine Chapel
Connor Kearns
In 1981, the Vatican announced plans to restore Michelangelo's frescos in the Sistine Chapel. The goal was to remove layers of
soot and reveal the frescos as Michelangelo intended them. The completed restoration made the frescos brighter and easier to
see. The restoration continues to raise controversy as art historians debate whether the colors revealed were the same ones
Michelangelo actually painted. Some people feel that the restorers stripped the work of well-wom age. Others believe they
lovingly restored the ceiling to its original beauty.

In 1981, the Vatican announced plans to restore Michelangelo's frescos in the Sistine Chapel. The goal was to remove layers of soot
and reveal the frescos as Michelangelo intended them. After traveling to Rome last year, I can say that the completed restoration
made the frescos brighter and easier to see. The colors made an already beautiful work of art brilliant. However, the restoration
continues to raise controversy as art historians debate whether the colors revealed were what Michelangelo actually painted. Some
people feel that the restorers stripped the work of well-worn age. I believe they lovingly restored the ceiling to its original beauty

Read sentence 13 from the draft. some plants retain a great deal of their foliage through much of the spring and summer, but the leaves do not retain their green color for long. which detail would be best to add after sentence 13 to develop the topic? a. since the green color of the leaves that are bright and abundant during the warmer months will disappear by the time it is fall, it is important that the leaves are trimmed and kept freshly cut so that they will last for as long as possible. b. while the temperature outside may dictate when the fall colors of leaves appear, it is only one of many environmental factors that play a part in the changing of colors from green leaves to fall-colored leaves during the cooler months. c. if people want to enjoy the green color of leaves longer, trees should be planted where the environment is warmer and the days longer because chlorophyll in the leaves can only be manufactured and replaced with sunlight and warmth. d. the green chlorophyll normally masks the fall-colored pigments during the warmer months, but as sunlight becomes less abundant and trees become frozen, the fall colors of leaves become more visible as chlorophyll disappears.
