Question

Sharon reads two different articles about avocados. The first article, in a weight-loss magazine, claims that avocados are unhealthy because they are high in fat. The second article, in an annual publication from a doctors’ group, claims that the fat in avocados is a type that is good for the heart.
To assess these claims, which question might Sharon ask?

Which source do avocados come from?
Where are avocados sold?
Is the source an authority on the subject?
How much do avocados cost?

Answer 1

Answer:

Is the source an authority on the subject?

Explanation:

To figure out which source is accurate, you want to find out the source's authority on the subject. For  example, if you wanted to learn how to play the piano, you wouldn't go to a dance teacher, you would go to someone who knows how to play the piano. The person who knows how to play the piano has more authority to teach the piano than a dance teacher.
