Many manufacturers prefer plastic as a material for containers because it can be molded into many shapes.
But plastic is not very strong. It must be fused with glass
or steel for strength. It is also not very durable. Even the
strongest plastic can break under enough pressure. The
biggest disadvantage to using plastic is that it does not
decompose. While plastic can be recycled, doing so is
tedious and difficult. While it may be more expensive and
difficult to work with, aluminum is a much stronger
building material with far greater tensile strength. It
conducts electricity because it is metal. Best of all,
aluminum is very easy to recycle. Even if it is thrown away,
it decomposes much more quickly than most
manufacturing materials.
Which statement best describes how the compare-and-contrast pattern of the
text supports the author's purpose?
O A. The passage begins by describing the advantages of aluminum
and ends by contrasting these with the disadvantages of plastic.
O B. The passage begins by listing all the benefits of plastic and
aluminum and ends by listing all the weaknesses of the two
materials
O C. The passage begins by describing the benefits of plastic and ends
by comparing these benefits with the benefits of aluminum.
