In which scenario is the reporter using observation? Interviewing the organizer of a festival Reading about the history of a festival Riding rides and eating food at a festival Talking to friends about a festival

Riding rides and eating food at a festival.

Explanation:

Observation is one important aspect of investigative journalism. It involves an action that includes not only the sense of sight but also taste, touch, smell, etc.

Among the scenarios given, the use of observation by a reporter will be in the act of joining the rides and eating the food at the festival. This is an observational skill in that the experience will give better aspects to write a report about the festival. Reading the history of the festival, or talking to the organizer or friends is not an aspect of observation.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

the sentence does not violate the phrase structure second rule (introduced by noam chomsky) because noun phrases consist of a determiner such as a, the or every, and a noun. in the sentence, the noun phrase the cake includes a determiner (the) and a noun (cake).

on the other hand, the first rule indicates that a sentence encloses a noun phrase, followed by a verb phrase. the example sentence can be analysed as follows:

john (n) + ate (v) + the (det) + cake (n).
