Question 3 Which detail from the text BEST supports the inference that deep down Anthony

thinks he may win the election for student body president?

А

Today was student government officer Election Day at

Woodleigh Oaks High, and Anthony was vying for the office of

student body president, a longtime dream of his.

B

A few minutes later, being pelted by needles of steaming hot

water in the shower, Anthony practiced the opening line of his

acceptance speech to give himself courage.

С

He talked on and on, in a confident, clear voice, and all he

could hear was unusual silence; a silent high school

gymnasium was an oxymoron.

D

The election results for student body president were

announced last, so Anthony had plenty of time to become

almost crazy with impatience.

C

Explanation:

Reading the passage over and over again, it was clear Anthony never saw himself winning, but despite 4huge odds stacked against him, we could take an inference in this line of the passage.

"He talked on and on, in a confident, clear voice, and all he could hear was unusual silence; a silent high school gymnasium was an oxymoron."

The fact that gymnasium was silent meant that the students were listening very attentively to what he was saying and we could even go further to say, they believed in him. Else, of course like the passage said "it was an oxymoron", they would have been noisy and not given him any attention. If credence is given to the statement that followed the quoted line, we will see that the crowd actually applauded him and not boo him.

I believe C is the answer

journalism is the gathering, organizing, and distribution of news -- to include feature stories and commentary -- through the wide variety of print and non-print media outlets. it is not a recent phenomenon, by any means; the earliest reference to a journalistic product comes from rome circa 59 b.c., when news was recorded in a circular called the acta diurna. it enjoyed daily publication and was hung strategically throughout the city for all to read, or for those who were able to read.
