It was recently reported that the Riversville city council is considering cutting its funding of the Riversville Library in order to save money for the next fiscal year. While I appreciate the city's need to tighten its finances, I am vehemently opposed to defunding the library as a means to that end. The library is an important part of our community. Hundreds of people visit it every month. I wholeheartedly endorse maintaining the library's funding and finding another way to bolster the city's budget.
Upon reviewing this paragraph, the author considers adding a sentence that defends the library's need for proper funding. Which of these sentences would BEST serve that purpose?
A) Without support from the city, the library would not be able to sustain itself for long.
B) Unlike other public facilities, the library is not appreciated by our politicians.
C) The library only lends out approximately five thousand books per year.
D) Our library has been inactive for more than thirty years.
GIVE ME ANSWER
Its d
sorry ya'll its actually A
The sentence that would best serve the purpose of defending the library's need for proper funding is:
A) Without support from the city, the library would not be able to sustain itself for long.
To arrive at this answer, we can eliminate options B, C, and D. Option B, "Unlike other public facilities, the library is not appreciated by our politicians," does not directly address the need for proper funding. Option C, "The library only lends out approximately five thousand books per year," is not a strong defense of the library's importance or the need for funding. Option D, "Our library has been inactive for more than thirty years," is contradictory to the information given in the paragraph and does not support the library's need for funding. On the other hand, option A clearly states the potential consequences of cutting funding, which reinforces the argument that the library requires proper funding to sustain its operations.
