The ending is effective because it gives the reader the choice. It sparks conversation and forces the reader or group to analyze and really think about the story so they can decide how it ends.
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Dr. Dowell says that we need to be prepared for a pandemic. He thinks every nation should have an emergency plan. More medications like Tamiflu should be available. He thinks rich countries like the U.S. should help poor countries pay for medicine and health care.
Why does the author most likely include this information at the end of the text instead of at the beginning?
A. because it draws a conclusion based on the evidence presented throughout the text
B. because it offers new evidence that is meant to help readers better understand the text
C. because it poses new questions for readers to think about now that they have read the text
D. because it offers supplemental information that readers can compare to evidence presented in the text
Answer:
The author includes this information at the end of the text:
A. because it draws a conclusion based on the evidence presented throughout the text
.
Explanation:
After discussing and presenting evidence throughout the text, author John DiConsiglio is now ready to conclude it. What he presents at the end cannot be new evidence or supplemental information, for that would not be a conclusion at all. He is also not presenting questions - he is making statements. Those statements are based on the information presented previously, supported by it. What the author wants now is to show how important that information was and how we can use it to be prepared for future cases of the disease.
