Question

Harrison is going to write a personal narrative about his uncle and the reasons he admires him. Which sentence most effectively uses description to show the reader what kind of person Harrison’s uncle is?

Uncle Ted's office is far from his house, so he spends a lot of time commuting to and from work.
Uncle Ted is the oldest of my father’s siblings, and he is the only relative who lives close to my family.
After spending time with Uncle Ted at his dental office, I thought a lot about attending dental school to become a dentist myself.
In addition to working full time in his thriving pediatric dental practice, Uncle Ted regularly provides free dental care to those in need.

Answer 1

I think it would either be C or D, but considering it's talking about the reasons why he admires him it should be D since it's not just asking for more explanation of him admiring him. The last answer says that his uncle works full time and offers free care for people who don't have the funds for it.

Answer 2

Answer:

D). In addition to working full time in his thriving pediatric dental practice, Uncle Ted regularly provides free dental care to those in need.

Explanation:

Personal narratives include experiences relating to one's life. In the given description, the sentence that most effective describes the personality of uncle Ted is option D as it proposes the qualities of him. It describes that he is a kind and generous person who offers free dental care aid to the needy which is reflective of his charitable nature. He also is a talented businessman as his dental practice is 'thriving'. These qualities would have been admired by Harrison and inspired him to become a dentist. Thus, option D is the correct answer.
