Question 33 • FL-8500355-Nutrition and Wellness (IS)

Sadie is a reporter who has researched an in-depth article about the prevalence of mercury found in local fish. During her investigation she finds that although a few fish have been caught with high levels of mercury, for the most part, they are rare. Considering that Sadie’s organization needs to sell ad space, which title will she MOST likely pick for this article?

Answer
A
No Cause for Alarm with Local Fish
B
Few Fish Affected by Mercury, Study Finds
C
Mercury Levels Not an Issue Here
D
Toxic Ingredients in Local Seafood

Explanation

Because Sadie’s organization needs to sell ad space, she is most likely to choose the title that sounds alarming and attracts readers. “Toxic Ingredients in Local Seafood” emphasizes the danger of mercury, even though the investigation found that high levels are rare. The other titles downplay the risk and are less likely to draw attention.
