The correct answers are 1. Proceed to the festival site entrance after pitching your tent 2. Before entering the festival site, exchange your tickets for a wristband

Explanation:

Restructuring a sentence implies moving the elements that compose it and even change the words but not the meaning. However, in this case, you should preserve the words. This implies you need to modify the order of the clauses that in a complex sentence include a subordinate clause, you can identify by the use of words such as before, when, although, because, after, etc. (subordinate conjunction), and an independent clause that expresses a complete idea. Also, in terms of punctuation, a comma is needed before the independent clause if the subordinate clause comes first.

According to this, the structure of the first sentence is "After pitching your tent" (subordinate sentence) "proceed to the festival site entrance" (independent clause) considering the first clause contains the word "after" that indicates subordination, while the second is a complete sentence. Thus, the correct way of restructuring this is by placing the independent clause and omitting the comma as "Proceed to the festival site entrance after pitching your tent".

On the other hand, in the second sentence, the independent clause comes first "Exchange your tickets for a wristband" (independent clause) "before entering the festival site " (subordinate clause) because the first clause is complete while in the second there is a subordinate conjunction "before". In this case, you should place the subordinate clause first, and add a comma after it as "Before entering the festival site, exchange your tickets for a wristband".
