The second one because if he wants to see his grandpa then he should see him soon but feel good about it at the same time, so he would work for his happiness and maybe have a little extra money to spend in England.

Answer 2

I will work one extra shift per week, and I will set aside $150 per paycheck to purchase a plane ticket to England.

Explanation:

Given scenario is :

Ethan would like to take a trip to England to visit his grandpa.

1. I will buy a plane ticket to travel to England. - This is an abrupt statement. Traveling does not only consist of plane ticket. It requires a lot of money to travel overseas. One needs to keep some cash with him also. This option cannot be true.

2. I will work one extra shift per week, and I will set aside $150 per paycheck to purchase a plane ticket to England. This seems the correct option as Ethan is planning properly and saving also. He will make a proper budget before traveling.

3. I will travel after I graduate. I will save $100 per paycheck. This is not given when he will graduate. Its an event that has a possibility to occur in future. This is not a valid option.
