answer:Yes, these two sentences are paraphrases of each other. They both convey the same information, which is that the individual being referred to was drafted in the second round of the 2012 WNBA draft as the 20th overall pick by the Minnesota Lynx. Paraphrasing is the act of expressing the same idea or concept using different words, phrases, or sentence structures, while maintaining the original meaning. In this case, both sentences convey the same idea but are expressed slightly differently: 1. "It was selected in the second round of the WNBA draft 2012 (20th overall) by Minnesota Lynx." 2. "She was selected in the second round of the 2012 WNBA Draft (20th overall) by the Minnesota Lynx." The differences between the sentences include: a) The use of the pronoun "It" in the first sentence, as opposed to "She" in the second sentence. Though both pronouns refer to the same individual, "She" makes it clear that the individual is a woman, which fits appropriately in the context of the WNBA. b) The placement of the year "2012" in the first sentence comes after the phrase "WNBA draft," while in the second sentence it is placed before "WNBA Draft." This is a minor variation in the structure of the sentence but does not change the meaning. c) Lastly, capitalization slightly differs between the two sentences where "WNBA Draft" is capitalized in the second sentence, while in the first sentence "draft" is not capitalized. Again, this difference is minimal and does not alter the meaning of the sentence. Despite these small differences, the core information in both sentences is identical, indicating that they are paraphrases of each other.
