Read Anson's letter to his local city council.

Dear City Council Members:
In last week's newspaper, I read that the council is planning on reopening the city swimming pool, I am writing to voice my opinion about
this plan. I believe that the pool is not safe for the public to use, Waiting until this safety problem is solved is the best thing you can do for the
people of our community. Please consider my opinion
Sincerely,
Anson Lockhart
Which statement, if added to the text, would best support Anson's opinion that the city pool is not safe?
1.
The lifeguards need to remind people that it is dangerous to run on the pool deck,
2.
The last time I went to the pool, the water was colder than usual and I did not like it
3. It is risky to spend money on a luxury when our community needs so many other things,
4.
The health department reported that some people have gotten sick after swimming in the pool.

Please help me I need to get high mark please

Answer:

4. The health department reported that some people have gotten sick after swimming in the pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

In his letter to the local city council, Anson voiced his concern over the safety of the pool and why it needs more time to be deemed safe to open. And according to him, if that 'missing' safety concern is taken care of, then the pool may be opened and safe.

Considering that he wrote "Waiting until this safety problem is solved is the best thing you can do for the people of our community", I think the best statement that can be added is about the health issue with the pool. It is also the only reasonable statement to be added to the text.

Thus, the correct answer is option 4.
