Question 6 • ELA 10B - 2023

Read a sentence from Everest's argumentative essay.Physical books help reduce an ever-increasing amount of daily screen time.Which statement provides the best supporting evidence for Everest's argument?

Answer
A
Since e-books can be read on multiple devices, readers can choose the best screen to use.
B
Reading physical books helps reduce exposure to screens and blue light.
C
Unlike an e-reader, multiple physical books are heavier and take up more space.
D
To show better on a screen, e-books offer adjustable font sizes.

Explanation

Everest argues that physical books help reduce daily screen time. Reading a physical book means using a printed page instead of a screen, so it directly supports that claim; it also reduces exposure to blue light from screens. Choice B, “Reading physical books helps reduce exposure to screens and blue light,” is the best evidence. The other choices describe features or drawbacks of e-books rather than showing how physical books reduce screen use.
