What should be done to ensure a consistent writing style?

  1. Use figurative language throughout

  2. Make sure all sentences have the same form

  3. Vary sentence lengths

  4. Use a thesaurus

The correct answer is: Make sure all sentences have the same form

Consistent writing style is achieved by maintaining the same form in sentences. This means using a consistent sentence structure, tense, and tone throughout a piece of writing. Using figurative language (A) can add variety, but it can also disrupt consistency if not used in a controlled manner. Varying sentence lengths (C) can make writing more interesting, but it may also make it less consistent. Using a thesaurus (D) can lead to inconsistencies in word choices. Therefore, the best way to ensure a consistent writing style is to focus on maintaining the same form in sentences (B).
