Hello, This question is incomplete. The full question is:
When we arrived, however, the library was closed. About a dozen people were milling about the glass front doors, wearing puzzled expressions and muttering with frustration
Which best analyzes the quality of the evidence's support for the claim that the funding for the public library should be protected because the library offers important programs and services that benefit the whole community?
A. The quality is good; the evidence supports the claim by using a personal example to show that there is clear community demand for the library's services
B. The quality is okay; the evidence supports the claim by showing a need, but it would be better if the writer had asked each person why they were frustrated.
C. The quality is poor; the evidence does not give an exact statistic to explain how many of the people were at the library to attend a program.
D. The quality is okay; the evidence supports the idea that the library offers programs, but it would be better if the writer had asked these people what specific programs they attended.
Answer:
D. The quality is okay; the evidence supports the idea that the library offers programs, but it would be better if the writer had asked these people what specific programs they attended.
Explanation:
In order to present a good support of evidence, the author must present data about the programs offered by the library, their quality, availability and the relevance they present. In order to know about these data, it would be important that the author had heard the public's opinion about the library's programs, since, as users, the public can offer a view with less bias.
Answer:
More chairs are needed to make seating available for all attendees.
Explanation:
To make an implicit meaning is to say about something but not mentioned or expressed directly. It may be stated in some way but not directly mentioned.
In the given excerpt from <em>Infinite Jest </em>by David Foster Wallace, the narrator talks about the interview room that he was seated in. The only implicit detail he furnished was that the room needs more chairs for others to be seated. This is seen in the passage <em>"the others sit, stand and stand"</em>, while the other options are clearly stated.
Hal seated in a chair with his ankle on his knee (<em>"ankle on knee, hands together in the lap of my slacks"</em>), the Director of Composition involved in the interview process (<em>"interview room’s other personnel include: the University’s Director of Composition"</em>) and the tennis coach with money in his pocket (<em>"jingles pocket-change"</em>) are all stated explicitly.
Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
