Fighting for Equality and Unity — Test

Question 12 • English Language Arts 9

The class created presentations to convince the school principal to create an activity or group that brings teenagers together. Read the claim. Claim: Lacrosse should become a varsity sport at our school. Which reasons support this claim? Choose three correct answers.

Answer
A
Youth lacrosse consists of four ten-minute quarters.
B
Funding is available for one sport to be added.
C
Sporting goods stores often sell lacrosse sticks.
D
The school lacrosse club has thirty-five regular attendees.
E
Other high school lacrosse teams are seeking opponents.

Explanation

A reason supports the claim when it gives a practical argument for making lacrosse a varsity sport. Other high school teams seeking opponents shows there would be teams to play, and the club’s thirty-five regular attendees shows student interest. Available funding for one added sport makes creating the team feasible; selling sticks or describing game rules does not show why the school should add it.
