Answer:
The correct answers, in order would be thus: 1. D: All of the above, 2. True, and 3. A.
Explanation:
In the first place, we need to understand that hooks, in writing, are techniques used in order to generate, or encourage, the interest of an audience. In essence, hooks can be questions, facts that are surprising, anecdotes, and statistics, that peek a reader´s interest to read further and find more information. This is why question one´s answer is the last one, All of the above.
The second question would be true because of the essence of informational writing, which is, to present information as realistically as possible, without the added intention of swaying a reader. It simply presents factual information, as realistically as possible. An anecdote, or personal story, seeks to encourage a connectiong between reader and writer that reaches a more personal level, which is completely out of the scope of informational writing.
In the third case, the correct answer is A, because the opening presented in this option gives just enough information to peek the reader´s interest to learn more, without divulging so much that the reader may feel as if they have already read enough.
