"By bleaching away the pigments in plant cells, Siegfried Fink managed to create transparent wood, and he published his technique in a niche wood technology journal."

"Continued and shared attention to people and events is important because it can help shape identity." CD - We need a base form verb to come after the infinitive TO given in C.
