PLS HELP ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2 While pedaling through France's idyllic side streets on my bicycle one day, I overheard a radio advertisement spoken in English. Although I've been working on French language skills, I was still elated to hear something in English:

3 Come to La Grand Maison and take a step back in time. This extraordinary home, which was nearly demolished, has been closed to outsiders for one hundred years. During that time, none of the original artifacts—not a single valuable painting or priceless sculpture—were removed or altered. This gargantuan building is thirty thousand square feet, and its historical details allow visitors to travel back to the late 1800s, when the building was first constructed.

How would the advertisement the writer heard on the radio be different from a play about an old French mansion?
A) The advertisement convinces by giving facts, and a play would entertain by telling a story.
B) The advertisement entertains by listing ideas, and a play would inform by presenting details.
C) The advertisement educates by describing history, and a play would convince by showing emotion.
D) The advertisement informs by telling a story, and a play would persuade by making up information.

The best answer would be A. Advertisements are meant to convince people to do something (often buy or use a product), while the main purpose of plays would be to entertain.
