Question 9 • S1S-OC: US History A (E1202 - AG)

Read the statements. Surely you can see that President Theodore Roosevelt was by far the greatest president ever. He was a big reason why we beat the Axis Powers during WWII.Which best describes the word choice of these statements?

Answer
A
informal and subjective
B
vague and professional
C
formal and objective
D
professional and unnatural

Explanation

The phrases “Surely you can see” and “by far the greatest” sound conversational and express a strong personal opinion. That makes the word choice informal and subjective, rather than neutral and objective. The statements also make a debatable judgment about Roosevelt instead of presenting it as an impartial fact.
