Question

Select the correct text in the passage. Bethany is writing a letter to Mr. Stanton to request an informational interview. Read her email and identify the selection that states her purpose for the interview. Dear Mr. Stanton, My name is Bethany Wilcox, and I am a student at Bruce Wayne High School. As I’m considering what I want to study and my chosen career field, I would love to meet with you to ask you a few questions about your position as a reporter and what led you to your career. I would only take 20 minutes of your time, and I plan to ask you the following questions: What does a typical day look like for you? What problems and challenges do you face? What education did you complete, and what classes were helpful for your career? What advice could you offer an aspiring reporter? What skills are important for a reporter? Please let me know if you would be available to meet with me and when a good time would be for the interview. I hope to meet you soon and hear more about your employment. Thank you, Bethany Wilcox
