Answer: 2. biased; the question encourages a certain response.

Explanation:

The question is biased because it already makes assumptions of the two activities.

It labels football games as EXCITING whilst asking if one would 'SIT THROUGH' choir recitals which is a way of saying that the choir recitals are BORING.

This question therefore elicits a certain response as most people would go with the Exciting activity so as not to be seen as boring people who would go to choir recitals.
