Select the sentence that does not contain an error: (3 points) The pool full of people were cool and blue. The pool full of people are cool and blue. The pool full of people was cool and blue. The pools full of people was cool and blue.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is C. The pool full of people was cool and blue.

Explanation:

One of the elements that makes a sentence correct is that the subject (agent of the action) and the verb (action) agree in number (both are singular or plural). This factor makes sentences such as "The pool full of people were cool and blue" incorrect because the singular subject "the pool" is followed by a plural verb "were". In this context, the only correct sentence is "The pool full of people was cool and blue" because the subject and verb are both singular.

Which sentence contains an element of bias?According to researchers, children who watch less television are more likely to lead an active lifestyle and participate in sports.
Reliable research and a handful of well-regarded studies show that watching too much television can negatively impact children’s academic progress and development.
Researchers report that violent television can have a negative impact on children, but they likely aren’t taking into account the available programs that are enriching.

Answers

The correct answer is the last option: "Researchers report that violent television can have a negative impact on children, but they likely aren’t taking into account the available programs that are enriching."

Bias refers to when an individual provides his/her personal viewpoint or interpretation of a certain topic, rather than stating information in an objective manner. In this instance, the last option contains the author's personal interpretation and viewpoint of the research findings, thereby, inserting bias into it. The first and second options do not contain bias as they are objective statements that do not include an individual's personal interpretation.

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Researchers report that violent television can have a negative impact on children, but they likely aren’t taking into account the available programs that are enriching."
