Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
The reason is option D or "music has been proven to calm animals and to make humans smarter." That is because the entire paragraph was about the science to why humans enjoy music so much. Earlier sentences suggested MRI scans, monitoring brain activity, and people being willing to spend more on music based on their brain activity. The final sentence was information about how music calms animals when the entire paragraph was about the science to why humans enjoy music which is why that is your answer.

b) The National Collegiate Athletic Association, or NCAA, earned a staggering $1 billion in 2017, and college athletes will never see a penny of that profit.
Option B is the best hook for an argument in favor of paying college athletes. A hook is the first sentence or two of the essay that gets the reader interested in the topic of the essay. In this hook, the author provides startling data to hook the audience. People may want to better understand what the NCAA does with all that money. It's also obvious this hook what the author's stance is on the topic. The use of the word "staggering" and "never" set the tone that author is appalled by this. Option A is too vague. So what if they make a lot of money...good for them. Or the audience might already know it. Why would they then want to read the essay. Option D has a similar problem. The question is a yes or no answer. The audience says no so what then, or even if they say yes. Where does the essay go from there? A hook should entice the audience and make them want more.
