Read the excerpt from News Articles about Bullying. Which example best synthesizes the information in this excerpt? As a child diagnosed with Tourette's syndrome, Asperger's syndrome, and obsessive compulsive disorder, Jaylen Arnold has experienced bullying. When he was 8 he decided to take a stand. O I read that Jaylen has Tourette's syndrome, and I saw a program about Tourette's syndrome on TV, and it was really interesting to learn about it. O I read that Jaylen experienced bullying, and I read a newspaper article about a girl who was bullied in my town, and that made me so sad. O I read that Jaylen was bullied for being different, and I have a friend who was bullied for being different and it really hurt, so I will try to be nicer to kids who seem different. O Tread that Jaylen has Tourette's and Asperger's syndrome, as well as obsessive compulsive disorder, and I think it must be hard for him to have all those issues—but he also started Jaylen's Challenge, which is against bullying.​

Answer: C. I read that Jaylen was bullied for being different, and I have a friend who was bullied for being different and it really hurt, so I will try to be nicer to kids who seem different.

Step-by-step explanation:

For an option to be said to have synthesized the information in the excerpt, it should touch on most if not all of the issues in the excerpt and have a conclusion that is in line with the theme of the excerpt.

Option C is therefore the best option because in mentioning that Jaylen was bullied because he was different, it related Jaylen's conditions to his bullying.

Going with the theme of the excerpt which is against bullying, the speaker in option C resolves to be nicer to people who are different.
