Question

Bonnie read an informational text about the cello for music class. In her analysis, she made the following claim: The cello is a difficult instrument to play. Which explicit evidence from the text would best support Bonnie’s analysis?
A. A cellist must learn accurate finger placement by ear and practice for several hours daily.
B. The cello has four strings that lie across the bridge piece; it does not have marked frets.
C. The cello is a string instrument, like a violin, and plays mostly on the bass clef of the music staff.
D. YoYo Ma is a famous modern cellist, and his collaborations with popular artists have helped revive interest in the cello.

Answer 1

The answer is B, at least I think.

The definition of explicit is,“to fully and clearly express something, leaving hing, leaving nothing implied.” Something is explicit when it is cleared stated and spelled out and there is no room for confusion, as in the writing of a contract or statute.

So, explicit evidence is information directly stated in the text. The author comes right out and tells you the information.

When they say "The cello has four strings that lie across the bridge piece; it does not have marked frets," they're directly implying the cello is a hard instrument to play.

Hoped I helped you!

Good luck on whatever you're doing!
