Which of the following sentences would best introduce paragraph 3?

A. The Man Booker Prize for Fiction is also a prestigious award.
B. For many authors, winning the Man Booker Prize is even better than the Nobel Prize.
C. The Man Booker Prize does not carry as much history as the Nobel Prize.
D. The Man Booker Prize was awarded to Salman Rushdie for his book Midnight's Children.

Answer 1

The sentence that would best introduce paragraph 3 is option B: For many authors, winning the Man Booker Prize is even better than the Nobel Prize.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence that would best introduce paragraph 3 is option B: For many authors, winning the Man Booker Prize is even better than the Nobel Prize.

This sentence is the best choice because it directly relates to the topic of the paragraph, which is the significance and value of winning the Man Booker Prize. Option A is not as relevant because it only mentions that the Man Booker Prize is prestigious, but it doesn't provide any context for paragraph 3. Option C is also not as relevant because it compares the history of the Man Booker Prize to the Nobel Prize, which is not the main focus of paragraph 3. Option D introduces Salman Rushdie's book, which is not the main topic of paragraph 3.
