Question 10 • English 2

Which source would be most reliable for researching the most effective types of physical activity for high school students?

Answer
A
a blog post from a high school student who discusses his after-school activities with his friends and posts humorous photos
B
an article from a university that uses advanced statistics to determine the total calorie loss for 10 different physical activities
C
an article in an online exercise magazine written by a parent who is concerned about her child’s obsession with video games
D
an online article written by a personal trainer who is looking for new clients and who posts about client success stories

Explanation

A university article that uses advanced statistics is the strongest source because it relies on research and measured data to compare physical activities. The other sources are shaped by personal goals, opinions, or anecdotes rather than systematic evidence. Although B measures calorie loss, it is still the most evidence-based choice for researching physical activity.
