In discussing Gary’s story about an animal rescue operation, Sally said:
The main character tries really hard to do the right thing, but I don’t think people should cram several stray dogs into one small household--they belong in a shelter.
What error did Sally make?

Instead of speaking objectively about the story’s strengths and weaknesses, Sally urges the writer to explain the story.

Instead of focusing on how well the story works, Sally voices her personal opinion about the story’s subject matter.

Instead of including both positive and negative criticism, Sally focuses only on the story’s most positive points.

Instead of focusing on the story’s character and plot development, Sally identifies errors in grammar and punctuation.

In order to answer this question, you need to understand the passage/quote completely. Once you do that, you look at all of the answer choices and find which one is the most relevant. It isn't the first choice because Sally never shows that she wants the writer to explain anything. It isn't the third choice because she doesn't focus on the positive points or the negative points of the story; she only focuses on her opinion. It isn't the last choice because Sally never says anything about any grammatical errors. This leaves the second choice.

Hope this helps! :-)
