Question 3
To solve this, we analyze each option:
- Option A: Describing classrooms as uncomfortable doesn't directly relate to how recess benefits students, so A is incorrect.
- Option B: Providing facts about mental health struggles alone doesn't show how recess benefits; it's more about a problem, not the solution (recess), so B is incorrect.
- Option C: Detailing different school experiences is too broad and doesn't focus on recess's benefits, so C is incorrect.
- Option D: If the paragraph explains that most students believe recess improves health, that directly supports the idea that recess benefits students. So D is correct.
The phrase "blow off steam" is an idiom. Let's analyze the options:
- Option A: "Experience intense anger" is the opposite of releasing it, so A is incorrect.
- Option B: Feeling pressure in decision - making has nothing to do with "blow off steam", so B is incorrect.
- Option C: "Release unwanted stress or anger" matches the meaning of the idiom "blow off steam", so C is correct.
- Option D: Having a poor response to an upsetting situation is not related to releasing stress/anger, so D is incorrect.
Without the full text, we can assume that Ryan Nguyen might support the claim by providing personal anecdotes (e.g., his own experience with recess as an older student), citing research or statistics (e.g., studies showing recess improves focus or mental health in older students), or giving examples of how recess helps with stress management, social skills, or academic performance for older students.
