Question

Which of these statements clearly states a clear position on the issue of vaccination? A) Some people believe that the ingredients in vaccines are shocking. B) Parents have a lot to be concerned about today. C) Without a doubt, parents should take the time to vaccinate their kids. D) Children's health and safety is very important and must be considered in any decision.

Answer 1

C. It makes a clear claim and relates to vaccinations.

Answer 2

Hey there

Correct answer is C. Let's see why.

A: Statement a could not work because there is no a position on this topic, just a believing and it is not related to a position.

B: OK, it says that parents have a lot to be concerned about, but this is a generalization and there is not a positive or a negative opinion.

C: This one would work. It is the only one in which we have a reference and a clear opinion. Since the beggining, we see a biased phrase: without a boubt. By saying that and adding that parents SHOULD take THE TIME, it's taking a position: I agree with vaccination; therefore, I take some time to vaccinate my kid

D) Children's health must be con: Ok, it's about health and safety; however, this statement is not limiting how to to look after children. It had to be so specific; say that it was about vaccination and its position would be very explicit.

Hope this helps.
