5) Which of these statements LEAST reveals the author's favorable bias

toward the Road Race?
A)
Not only is the race special because it takes place on
a special day, but it also has a rich, over three-decade
tradition.
B)
By 1980, just ten years later, the race had grown from
110 runners to over 20,000 people and had nearly
outgrown the four-lane street.
C)
It is easy to see why the Peachtree Road Race has
become a popular tradition for both the competitive
world-class athlete and the weekend jogger alike.
D)
Add to that mix--the amazing crowd cheering loudly
for the entire 6.2 mile race, the prestigious t-shirt,
and the ability to run in the same race as those on
running magazine covers--and you have the recipe
for the world's best 10K road race.

Answer: C. By 1980, just ten years later, the race had grown from 110 runners to over 20,000 people and had nearly outgrown the four-lane street.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that least reveals the author's favorable bias is option B "By 1980, just ten years later, the race had grown from 110 runners to over 20,000 people and had nearly outgrown the four-lane street".

When compared to other options, we can see that option B is a statement that's based on evidence and facts. Other statements reveal the bias of the author as the statements show that the author is bias and giving opinions why he thinks the race is the best rather than backing the statements with facts.
