Which of these statements LEAST reveals the author's favorable bias toward the Road Race?

A) Not only is the race special because it takes place on a special day, but it also has a rich, over three-decade tradition.

B) By 1980, just ten years later, the race had grown from 110 runners to over 20,000 people and had nearly outgrown the four-lane street.

C) It is easy to see why the Peachtree Road Race has become a popular tradition for both the competitive world-class athlete and the weekend jogger alike.

D) Add to that mix--the amazing crowd cheering loudly for the entire 6.2 mile race, the prestigious t-shirt, and the ability to run in the same race as those on running magazine covers--and you have the recipe for the world’s best 10K road race.


The author clearly hates MP3 players and expresses his opinion by using section titles like: "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" and "Narcissism." He also expresses this with opinions like "(p)eople who are addicted to their MP3 players don’t care about other people," and "MP3 players are detrimental and damaging to society as a whole."

Based on the way the author expresses his opinions, who is the intended audience for this passage?
A) people who love their MP3 players
B) people who manufacture MP3 players
C) people who feel the same way as the author
D) people who are thinking of purchasing MP3 players

Respuesta :

The first one is B because it is just stating the facts

For the first question, in option A, the author is calling it "The special race". In C, the author agrees with the idea that the Road Race deserves to become popular. On D, he or she talks about the amazing crowd. On option, B, though, only facts are stated. Making it the correct answer:

B) By 1980, just ten years later, the race had grown from 110 runners to over 20,000 people and had nearly outgrown the four-lane street.  

For the second question, the author is not trying to sell you the idea of not buying an MP3 player, he or she is, instead, bashing MP3 Player owners, purely. So the correct answer would be:

C) people who feel the same way as the author
