Answer:
A. <em>The reader could compare the narrator's presentation and evaluation of it.</em>
<em />
Explanation:
This is only the answer if the passage that you were given is "<em>Twelfth Night Flop</em>"
But that it also reads:
Twelfth Night Flop
<em>This is a draft of a student's narrative essay.</em>
<em />
<em> I can remember the flop so clearly.</em>
<em> I was already intimidated by the assignment, and then I wandered off script which didn't ease the burden of an already difficult task. Shakespeare said, "Where words are scarce, they are seldom spent in vain," and yet, there I was, bumbling through my one-minute explanation of why Tweflth Night is Shakespeare's best play, abandoning the concise explanation I'd rehearsed in exchange for what? A less poignant opener, for sure. You know what I should have done? I should have recreated a comedic moment with the class, inviting them to experience a moment I had loved as an audience member. Instead, I told them about the performance in a convoluted way after asking what prized possession they would grab if their house was on fire. I didn't even get to finish.</em>
<em> When the time-keeper, Kenya, said time was up, I was astonished. My voice shrank and my eyes burned with tears that I hoped others would not notice as I returned to my seat. It didn't help that Jerome presented next and went overtime, but Kenya couldn't say for how long, since she was so riveted by his talk.</em>

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.
Answer:
The answer is C.
Explanation:
My reasoning is because there are not as many descriptive details in choice C as the other answer choices.
