Answer:

B)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first paragraph, (3) the author focuses on how the decoration of the Oval Office has been changed by each president. It mentions that the carpeting and the drapes of the office have had many different colors and also the furniture have been changed.

The second paragraph (4) is more specific and it refers specifically to the different carpets the Oval Office has had and how every carpet includes the seal of the President in turn. Finally, it mentions George's Bush carpet.

Therefore, we can say that the correct answer is B) Paragraph 3 focuses on the changing style of the Oval Office while paragraph 4 is specifically about the Oval Office carpet.
