Part b which detail from the text best supports the answerto part a , fourteen
jekas [21]

The detail that supports part A is the sentence that shows that without advertising, people would not have free access to television, magazines, newspapers, and internet content.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The text shows that advertising is something irritating, but essential for the proper functioning of the media.
  • That's because readers and viewers may see advertising as a problem, but it's through it that they have access to fun and important content.
  • This is because advertising provides the necessary funding for books, magazines, internet content, newspapers, and television to remain free to the public.
  • In this case, advertising can be a problem that encourages positive results.

Your question is incomplete as you have not shown part A that this question is related to.

However, from questions similar to yours, we can see that part A shows that the theme of the text is that some people find advertisements annoying, but they are the ones that provide the public with necessary services and information.
