Read the text that Marcia sent to a friend.

I had to come up with a service project as part of my grade in social studies, so I did a food drive in the spring. Everyone does them at the holidays, right?

Which option shows how Marcia could best revise this information to use in an application for a summer leadership program?

A-When I devised my service project for social studies, I chose to conduct a food drive in late March, since food banks often run low on supplies after the winter holidays.

B-I did a service project as part of social studies in the spring, since food banks need more contributions after the winter holidays.

C-For social studies, I conducted a food drive in the spring, because everyone does them during the holidays.

D-I had to come up with a service project for social studies, so I conducted a food drive after the holidays.

Talon Orozco · Answer 2

I believe letter A to be the best option: When I devised my service project for social studies, I chose to conduct a food drive in late March, since food banks often run low on supplies after the winter holidays.

Explanation:

Since we are revising the text Marcia sent to a friend in order to make it usable for an application, I believe the best option to be letter A. Applications usually tend to present a more formal type of writing. Letter A is the most formal of the options offered and its tone is polite, different from the original text, which sounds a little careless.
