Read the following passage:

The supermarket chain Shopway has announced today
that it is unveiling a new shuttle-bus service that will take
drivers from their cars to the front door of Shopway. "We
know that sometimes it just takes so much effort to walk
the 50 feet or so to the store, and it can be confusing and
difficult to be out of your car longer than necessary,' said a
spokesperson for the store. "And you can call for the
shuttle bus directly from your cell phone without even
having to exit your vehicle."
What is most likely the intended purpose of this passage?
A. To point out how dependent people are on their cell phones
B. To announce a new service being offered by Shopway
C. To argue that shopping experiences could be improved
OD. To suggest that many people are too lazy to walk

Answer:

I believe the answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

The passage is introducing a new way to get to Shopway faster. It's informing rather than arguing, and it has to do with transportation, not people on their cell phones or how people are lazy to walk there. B is the best answer.
