Read the sentence.The lawyer presented a clear argument to the jury it was unbelievable how influenced they were by his case in the hopes of winning the trial.Which is the best revision of the sentence?

The sentence includes an interrupting comment: “it was unbelievable how influenced they were by his case.” Dashes can set off this comment clearly, while the main sentence still reads smoothly: “The lawyer presented a clear argument to the jury—in hope of winning the trial.” Choice C uses commas to join the comment in a confusing way, and choice A’s parentheses make the aside less natural here. Choice B also correctly uses the phrase “in hope of winning the trial.”
