Upon hearing the news of the committee’s plans, the animal shelter workers were overjoyed, and they asked if they could attend t
he event with some of the animals from the shelter. Over the next weeks and months, José led a team of his peers in planning and developing the plans for the walk-a-thon. They designed posters to advertise their cause and displayed them in local establishments all over town. They enlisted the help of their fellow students, friends, and family to find volunteers to walk and sponsors to donate money. They even solicited food and beverage donations so that all participants would have refreshments to enjoy. Read this paragraph from the draft. Which would be the appropriate ending for this paragraph? A) José was excited that the workers were attending the event, and he hoped to see some of his friends from the shelter. B) The plans for the walk were coming together, and José and the other committee members waited with anticipation. C) Some of the committee members put together a radio ad about the walk and played it on local stations. D) The committee decided to have some food and drinks available at the walk for the participants.
<u><em>The sentence</em></u> The plans for the walk were coming together, and José and the other committee members waited with anticipation <u><em>best concludes the paragraph.</em></u>
B) The plans for the walk were coming together, and José and the other committee members waited with anticipation.
This sentence would be the best ending for this paragraph. The paragraph is all about the preparations for the walk-a-thon. This sentence best summarizes these efforts when it states "The plans for the walk were coming together". It also hints at what is to come when it talks about the anticipation Jose and his team were feeling. Option A only talks about Jose's feeling and does not provide a big enough connection to the rest of the events in the paragraph. Options C and D continue to talk about the plans made, but does not conclude or summarize anything. The ending of a paragraph should offer some conclusion of ideas.
The sentence is "The man drove away angrily" is in a passive voice, because it that sentence has a verb, that is making the verb stand out. Hope this helps:)
