The complete question is:
Which statement best evaluates how well this narrative establishes a clear focus?
After six months of waiting, the day finally arrived. I was so excited about our seventh-grade class trip to the Wild Adventures Amusement Park that I could hardly sit still. At our middle school, each grade gets to go on an end-of-the-year trip if everyone maintains the Honor Code and the class has a high enough total grade point average. Last year, we went to the Capital City Zoo. My friends and I piled onto the bus and began talking about all the rides we wanted to try. Little did I know that the rides would not be my most memorable experience that day.
A. This narrative successfully establishes your focus because all of the details how to explain the narrator's emotions about going to the amusement park.
B. This narrative successfully establishes a clear focus because all of the details related to the narrator's school.
C. This narrative does not establish a clear focus because the final sentence hands that is something goes wrong on the trip.
D. This narrative does not establish a clear focus because the details about school policy and last year's trip are not important to the story of going to the amusement park.
Answer:
D). This narrative does not establish a clear focus because the details about school policy and last year's trip or not important to the story of going to the amusement park.
Step-by-step explanation:
The last statement correctly examines how the given narrative fails to set up focus because of providing irrelevant details regarding 'school's policy and the previous year's trip('maintaining honor code...grade point of students').' The story associated with 'the amusement park trip' is the central concern of the narrative and these unnecessary details divert the focus and confuses the readers. It doesn't allow the main idea to develop and therefore, the idea fails to be established. Thus, option D is the correct answer.
