Read the sentence.

when we read that many of the cereals bursting with sugars were those being marketed to kids, we set out to determine if this was indeed the case.

what is the effect of the word bursting on the author’s purpose?

A.It strengthens the author’s reason for investigating This is the correct option.

The author apparently is interested in studying the relationship between cereals and the market for kids. The speaker is not interested in any cereal but in the ones coated or bursting with sugars.Therefore the word bursting is indicating which group of cereals he / she will study. This group of cereals the market seems to exploit for kids is part of the author's study case.

B.It suggests that the author may tend to exaggerate. ( The author is not giving an opion about the cereals ; the authors is telling wich cereals he/ she will consider for the study. The focus is on the cereals with tons of sugars).

C.It shows the author’s views about cereals with sugar ( The author wants to describe his / her case study and this includes these cereals coated with tons of sugars).

D.It demonstrates that the author is interested in facts. ( The author is trying to reconstruct the fact. The author is linking pieces of information: extremely sweet cereals with the kid market and a result)
