Question

Read this source of information. (1) American youth have school commitments and extracurricular activities. (2) Many also enjoy leisure activities, such as reading and playing video games. (3) The US Department of Agriculture recommends that young people ages 6–17 should engage in 60 minutes of physical activity each day. (4) The specific amount of activity needed for a healthy lifestyle depends on daily caloric intake. Which sentence from the source best supports the reason "recreational sports are valuable because youth need to exercise daily”? 1 2 3 4

Answer 1

The correct option is 3.
The argument is that recreational sports are valuable because youths need to exercise daily. To buttress the point that youths need to exercise daily, the most fitting supporting sentence is that written in option 3.

Answer 2

It is definitely number 3. I am certain because I just took the quiz and did not miss any questions. Also it makes most sense because it is saying teens should exercise for an hour daily just like the question is asking.
