Writing an E-mail about an Important Issue

Question 4 • *CR Speech (ELECTIVE, 1 semester, E6001OX)

Read the paragraph from an e-mail.Students who visit the school library can’t find the materials they need for reports or projects. There are also so few fiction books available that most students don’t even consider visiting the library for their own reading pleasure.

Answer
A
The school library needs an update in order to be an effective resource for the students.
B
The school library is only open in the early mornings before school starts.
C
The school library doesn’t have as many books as other school libraries.
D
The school library needs a computerized card catalog to help search for information.

Explanation

The paragraph describes two problems: students cannot find materials for schoolwork, and there are too few fiction books for enjoyment. Together, these details show that the library needs improvement to serve students effectively. Choice A, “The school library needs an update in order to be an effective resource for the students,” best summarizes both problems; the paragraph does not mention limited hours, comparisons with other libraries, or a card catalog.
