Question

one of the best ways to succeed in college is by devising and adhering to a very prescriptive schedule that includes time for class, study, work, and rest/recreation. with an iron - clad schedule, you can easily get out of a coffee date with friends by simply saying \sorry. thursday afternoon from 2 - 4 is my chemistry study time.\ further, you can easily keep yourself sane with scheduled down time. lets say you have every sunday from noon - seven set aside for yourself. that means you have to complete your psychology paper that is due on monday by sunday at noon to stay on track. in this way, the schedule can help make sure that you have enough time every week for what you really want to do, even if thats a netflix binge or an afternoon of napping.

no answer saved.

Explanation:

El uso de la segunda persona ("you") en el pasaje crea una relación directa con el lector, lo que hace que el tono sea más informal y acogedor, como si el autor estuviera hablando directamente al lector de manera conversacional. Las opciones A (liveliness), C (uncertainty) y D (pessimism) no encajan, ya que la segunda persona no aporta vivacidad, incertidumbre ni pesimismo, sino que hace que el texto sea más informal.

Answer:

B. It contributes to the informality.
