Question 12 • CMS 2025-2026 English I CREDIT RECOVERY
Read the excerpt from "Youth Activism and Animal Rights.” In addition to traditional events like bake sales and car washes, young activists have raised money through more creative means. Many use special occasions, such as birthdays and bar or bat mitzvahs, to ask their friends and families to donate money to animal rights, rather than give gifts. Why does the author most likely include these details?
Answer
A
to illustrate that young activists pressure others to donate money
B
to emphasize the dedication and generosity of young activists
C
to highlight that young activists are irresponsible with money
D
to show that young activists are more generous than non-activists
Explanation
The details show young activists raising money in several ways and asking for donations instead of birthday or bar or bat mitzvah gifts. This emphasizes their dedication to animal rights and their generosity in directing gifts toward the cause. The excerpt does not suggest that they pressure others or compare them with non-activists.
