Question

(1) The gingko is a curious tree. (2) It belongs to its own classification. (3) It is not a conifer like a pine. (4) It is also not broad-leaved, like a maple or oak tree. (5) It has a rough, ridged bark and bright green leaves that turn golden in the fall. Which sentence states an OPINION?

Answer 1

1. The gingko is a curious tree

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence that states an opinion is:

"(1) The gingko is a curious tree."

This sentence contains the word "curious", which is a subjective term that expresses an opinion rather than a fact. While it is true that the ginkgo is a distinct tree species, describing it as "curious" is a matter of personal interpretation and therefore an opinion.
