Laura paints and draws well but her real talent is creative writing She can make even the most boring situations exciting through her use of words

Explanation:

The word that was used incorrectly in the sentence is "good" from the group of words "draws good". This is because it is ambiguous and can confuse readers who do not know if Laura is drawing a person or thing that is named "good" or if she can actually draw and paint well.

The word has been changed to "well" because it is unambiguous and is used correctly according to the sentence. This makes the reader to know that Laura is a good artist.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
