Question

read the following passage and determine the author’s purpose. we live approximately twenty miles from the city. if you want to make it to the city in time for the play, you should take the train because it makes fewer stops than the bus. choose two correct answers. to narrate to persuade or argue to inform

Explanation:

The passage provides information about the train being a better option (fewer stops) to reach the city on time for the play. So "to inform" is correct as it gives useful info. Also, it's persuading the reader to take the train by stating its advantage, so "to persuade or argue" fits. "To narrate" is about telling a story, which isn't the case here.

Answer:

to inform, to persuade or argue
