Answer from: aliciagore

I'd say A: As college costs soar, some question the value of getting a degree.

Explanation: A lot of people believe the only true way to success is through going to college, this is not true for the most part... However, you do still have a high chance of getting better-paying jobs if you go to college. An objective tone is a neutral based tone in which doesn't side with nor holds emotions or opinions. Neutral simply means neither or, right? In other words, you're not specifically playing one side at the moment rather than just covering some ground on the topic from both sides. Let's go backward:

The fourth answer choice is mainly about opinion rather than factual proof or statements. "There are just more jobs..." This is already starting off with an opinion.

Number three is appealing to someone rather than their topic. If that's a little confusing, I'll explain it differently. Rather than focusing on both sides of the argument, the writer chose to focus on the reader, it also uses the word "probably" -- which is a guess. Remember, we're not here to guess!

Answer two does provide a factual statement but this can be used against an argument as "why going to college isn't worth it". Granted, anything may be used against any topics and personally, I can't find much else wrong with this answer choice. I'm not for certain the answer is A, but I'm explaining my thoughts so anyone else may correct me.

Finally, the first answer! This can be used against an argument as well, however, it also introduces both sides already. There are countless students going to college and some of them are questioning the purpose of extra education. In just this single sentence, we can see the writer is merely saying "some" instead of "oh, well everyone is...", "hardly anyone..." and such, while the rest possibly never even think about it.

This is just my guess and my explanation as to why I feel it is so, please do feel free to correct me as I'm not 100% certain the answer between A or B! If anyone else is able to, please let me know if I got it correct! Tysm happy holidays! :)

Announcer two: ladies and gentlemen, following on the news given in our bulletin a moment ago, the government meteorological bureau has requested the large observatories of the country to keep an astronomical watch on any further disturbances occurring on the planet mars. due to the unusual nature of this occurrence, we have arranged an interview with noted astronomer professor pierson, who will give us his views on the event. in a few moments we will take you to the princeton observatory at princeton, new jersey. we return you until then to the music of ramón raquello and his orchestra. the passage is from the transcript of the radio adaptation of the war of the worlds by h. g. wells. instead of including expert interviews, h. g. wells uses a narrator to tell about an alien invasion that occurred a few years earlier. by including expert interviews, how does the radio broadcast change the story most effectively? o.a. it puts the story in the past tense, increasing its personal tone. o o b. it makes the broadcast sound more like a fictional story. o o c. it makes the broadcast sound like a news report. o d. it makes the story sound less believable by changing who presents the story's details.
