Question

1 My name is Maddox Smith. 2I am the Treasurer of the San Marcos High School Charity Club. 3We're having a canned food drive. 4This event is going to be off the hook and raise lots of dough for the homeless peeps. 5It's just two weeks away and I am writing to ask for your help. 6The Charity Club is planning to place collection boxes for canned food items at various local stores. 7We'd love it if you would allow us to place a bin at Shop Mart. 8All of the collections from the food drive will go to the local food bank to be sent out to local families who are really, super poor.

The excerpt from Maddox's letter is inappropriate simply because it contains contractions.


TRUE OR FALSE?

Answer 1

FALSE!

Step-by-step explanation:

I took my quiz, and it was correct!

Answer 2

FALSE. It's inappropriate because this is meant to be an invitation to something moderately important and he used a lot of slang in section 4. Slang shouldn't be used in writing unless it is used to quote someone. Hope that helped!
