Question 7 • English Language Arts 11

Read the excerpt from Cory’s letter to his principal about selling healthy food in the school cafeteria. Fruit is a nutritious and energizing snack, and it’s also yummy. Which is the best revision of the underlined portion of the sentence?

Answer
A
and we also think it tastes pretty good.
B
and we totally like it.
C
and most of us are pretty into it.
D
and it’s also delicious.

Explanation

The letter is addressed to the principal, so the wording should be clear and appropriately formal. “Delicious” expresses the same idea as “yummy” in a more polished way, while the other choices use casual expressions such as “totally like it” and “pretty into it.” The best revision is “and it’s also delicious.”
