Question 1 • GA-English Language Arts 8

Which statement is an opinion, rather than a fact?

Answer
A
Rigo was the first to finish the test that day, and he received the highest score.
B
Rigo’s algebra teacher asked him if he was interested in joining the math club.
C
Within a month, Rigo joined the math club and became the president.
D
Rigo really should have spent more time on his English homework.

Explanation

An opinion expresses a judgment that cannot be verified as true or false. Saying Rigo “should have” spent more time on his English homework is a judgment, so choice D is the opinion. The other statements describe events that could be checked.
