Question

5 The senior citizens center will give our parents and grandparents a home away from home. It will also bring new jobs to our community. The senior center will need registered nurses, program coordinators, and janitorial workers. This could provide unemployed citizens with new opportunities for work. So, in conclusion, I’m asking all of you to think about the positive ways that this project will benefit our community and show your support for this initiative in November.

Which sentence could be added to paragraph 5 of the speech without changing the tone?

A) Old people need a place to have fun as well!
B) My Grandmother in Arizona told me all about a center.
C) It isn’t right for us to ignore the needs of seniors.
Eliminate
D) It’s important for us to recognize all that seniors do for us.

Answer 1

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The paragraph sounds like it is about needing employees to help at the nursing home and so "it isnt right for us to ignore the needs of our seniors " sounds like it fits into there and it isn't in a specifically expressive tone so it fits with the monotone paragraph.

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer is D

Explanation: It’s important for us to recognize all that seniors do for us matches the tone of the other sentences in the speech. The other choices are too casual for the tone of this speech.
