The document discusses the four bases for revising writing: unity, support, coherence, and sentence skills. Unity refers to having a clear opening statement and details that support the main point. Support means using specific evidence to back up claims. Coherence is about clear organization and transitions. Sentence skills relate to grammar and structure. These four bases should be used to evaluate and improve written work.
