(4) People enjoy playing basketball because it is so cool.

The excerpt explains what basketball is, how its rules work, its popularity, and how widespread the sport is around the world. That is, this section is explanatory.

However, item (4) demonstrates the narrator's opinion about the sport, which may be accepted by some, but not for the majority. This opinionated argument broke the cohesion of the text, which is informative.

Answer and Explanation:

b. Hansel and Gretel were the children of a poor woodcutter, which means that the family did not have a good economic condition and what they had of money was enough to supply the family's needs, but it was not enough to promote certain luxuries such as sweets and toys for children. This explains why Hansel and Gretel were so fascinated by the witch's candy house and accepted all the food she gave them, because they didn't have that luxury at home.

c.The business policy Lydia assumed was to create efficient slogans and distribute pamphlets that showed the efficiency of the product and how it was created from a woman to other women, since only one woman knows the problems and discomfort of the menstrual cycle and menopause.
