Read the excerpt from Rafia's argumentative essay. The district should move the high school start time to 9 a.m. instead of 7:30 a.m.
Science has shown that sleep
Datterns shift later during adolescence; that means teens don't start feeling tired enough to fall asleep until 11 p.m. or later. If we have to be at
school at 7:30 a.m., that means waking up by 6:00 at the latest in order to have time to get ready and eat breakfast, which adults are always telling
us is the most important meal of the day. If you do the math, you can see that this leads to only seven hours of sleep on a good night. However,
studies show that teenagers need between eight and ten hours of sleep to function optimally, i.e. learn everything we need to learn!
Which sentence should Rafia insert into the blank to maintain the tone of her essay?
1. A later start time will help students function at their best.
2. Teenagers like to stay up late because they are set in their ways.
3. Students who stay up too late struggle to make it through the day.
4. The unfairness of an early start time for teenagers cannot be understated.​
