Answer and Explanation:

"All great and honorable actions are accompanied with great difficulties, and must be both met and overcome with answerable courage. " Reformulation: Every activity carried out during our life will present difficulties and challenges that need to be overcome with courage. Effect of the reformulation: The reformulated sentence became shorter than the original, which represents an optimization of the message idealized in the sentence, allowing the reader to have a faster identification and understanding of it.
" Friend, if ever we establish a colony, God works a miracle. " Reformulation: Our achievement is proof that God works miracles. Effect of the reformulation: The reformulated phrase is more modern and more global and universal. This is because Bradford specifies the reason that showed him that God works miracles, while the reformulated sentence has no specification, which allows the reader to associate it with any situation.
"The victory seemed a sweet sacrifice, and they gave praise to God Who had wrought so wonderfully for them. " Reformulation: God will work to overcome our challenges. Reformulation effect: Once again we can see the optimization of the original sentence after the reformulation, which left the sentence cleaner and more fluid, making it more pleasant for the reader and establishing a quicker and simpler meaning.
