Answer 2

The correct answer is D. As a result, students who typically arrive late will wake up earlier and leave home sooner.

Explanation:

An argument refers to a set of reasons or evidence provided to support the position of the author, because of this, it is common an argument is composed by a statement that expresses the position or idea to be defended and one or more statements that contain evidence to support this position. Additionally to this, in terms of writing, the statement and the evidence are usually connected with result linking words such as therefore, hence, due to, because, consequently or as a result,  considering the evidence is the reason or reasons provided to support the main position and it is common to support the main position by showing the audience this might have positive effects:

In this case, the main statement or position of the author is "There should be more severe consequences for students who come to school late" and the reason or supportive evidence provided for it is " Students who typically arrive late will wake up earlier and leave home sooner". In this case the evidence presented shows the reader by applying the "severe consequences" the author proposes there would be a positive effect, which means the best way to connect these sentences is by using a consequence linking word and therefore the sentence that best revises the supportive evidence is "As a result, students who typically arrive late will wake up earlier and leave home sooner" because the linking word "as a result" shows the link between the position of the author and the evidence by showing the audience applying this proposal has a positive consequence.
