Question

Some of the first movies were based on

children's books. By 1920, when movies were
still in their infancy, there were four screen
versions of Alice in Wonderland. There were
also three films based on Robinson Crusoe and
two on Tom Sawyer. It seems appropriate that
the motion-picture industry in its own youth
should turn for inspiration to the literature of
childhood.

Which sentence from the
passage
clearly an expression of opinion rather than a
statement of fact?
(A) "Some of...children's books."
(B) “By 1920,...in Wonderland."
(C) "There were.. Tom Sawyer."
(D) "It seems...of childhood."

Answer 1

Answer: D. It seems...of childhood.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that clearly shows an expression of opinion is that "It seems appropriate that the motion-picture industry in its own youth should turn for inspiration to the literature of childhood.

While the other options from A to C are based on facts, D is based on an opinion. This can be deduced when "should" was added to the statement in order to generate an opinion.
