An argumentative essay ends with the following conclusion.

in conclusion, i don't like to shop at malls.

which is the best revision for the conclusion?

i hope the city council will vote against building a new shopping mall, because my home is just a block away from the site.
midtown shopping mall was built just three miles from the proposed site. do we really need another retail outlet so close?
the proposed shopping mall is an unnecessary addition to our community and will result in increased noise and traffic.
a recent survey of community members found that the majority of residents are opposed to a new shopping mall.

C: The proposed shopping mall is an unnecessary addition to our community  and will result in increased noise and traffic.

The best revision for the conclusion is option C because throughout the argumentative essay the writer must have already expressed his or her views on the point regarding building a shopping mall.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
