Fact and Opinion
const2013 [10]

<span>1-The fastest land dwelling creature is the Cheetah. </span>

<span>Fact.  This is fact because it can be verified.</span>

 

2-the ugliest sea creature is the manatee.

<span>Opinion.  Because opinions vary and beauty (or ugliness) is relative, perspectives on what is considered “ugly” will vary.</span>

 

3-prison is one of the worst places on the planet.

<span>Opinion.  This is a relative thought.  To some, prison might be considered a good place.  In fact, there are instances where convicts cannot function in society after a long prison term and commit crimes to be returned to prison because society has become a bad place—a place where hardships outweigh those they faced in prison.</span>


4-Oranges contain both calcium and vitamin C.

<span>Fact.  This is something that can be tested and verified as true. </span>

 

<span>NOTE:  When trying to determine whether something is a fact or an opinion, just be sure to keep in mind that if the statement can be proven, it is fact; if the statement cannot be proven, it must be an opinion.</span>
