Ответ:
the answer is C. The author's claim is valid, but there is no evidence included to back it up.
Ответ:
The correct answer is C. The author's claim is valid, but there is no evidence included to back it up.
Explanation:
The author's claim is based on a film festival held every May. However, the speaker doesn't show or introduce evidence to back up that the crowds "mess up the city." It is also important to remark that the speaker's personal point of view seems to be the most important thing (even more than the evidence); this can be inferred by looking at expressions such as "I can't stand it anymore" or "I'm sure you agree it isn't worth it," where the speaker addresses his speech to an object and emphasizes something the speaker cannot prove.
Ответ:
A) Emma Watson played the character of Hermione in the Harry Potter movies.
Explanation:
The other options are all consistent arguments to support the idea of the letter to convince the Principal of inviting Emma Watson to speak at the school. The fact that she was Hermione in the Harry Potter movies is not as important to teach everyone about the importance of education as the other arguments used in the letter.
