Question

read the excerpt from fast food nation.

up and down academy boulevard, along south nevada, circle drive, and woodman road, teenagers like elisa run the fast food restaurants of colorado springs. fast food kitchens often seem like a scene from bugsy malone, a film in which all the actors are children pretending to be adults. no other industry in the united states has a workforce so dominated by adolescents.

how does schlosser effectively build his argument in this excerpt?

he uses anecdotal evidence to share a personal experience of eating fast food.
he uses analogical evidence to help the reader visualize his point about the workers.
he uses testimonial evidence to explain the health risks of eating fast food.
he uses statistical evidence to prove that adults make better employees than teens.

Explanation:

Schlosser compares fast food kitchens to the film Bugsy Malone (where children play adults) to help readers visualize the teen-dominated workforce. This is analogical evidence, matching the second option. The other options are incorrect: no personal anecdote about eating, no testimony about health risks, no stats on adult vs teen employees.

Answer:

He uses analogical evidence to help the reader visualize his point about the workers.
