Question

requiring uniforms is a good way to foster equality among students. it helps prevent name - brand clothing from dividing students into those who can afford it and those who cannot. it reduces the chance of theft, as expensive clothing and accessories can invite crime. finally, uniforms can encourage students to explore less - commercial forms of self - expression. that might be the greatest benefit of all.
what makes this a strong concluding paragraph?
○ it ends with a call to action for all schools to have uniforms
○ it ends with a judgment that money should play a smaller role in student self - expression.
○ it ends with a judgment that commercialism leads to greed among teens.
○ it ends with a call to action for students to stop buying expensive clothing.

Explanation:

To determine the strong concluding paragraph, analyze each option:

• Option A: The original paragraph doesn't call for all schools to have uniforms. It focuses on benefits of uniforms, not a call to action for schools. Eliminate.
• Option B: The paragraph ends by judging that the greatest benefit is encouraging less - commercial self - expression, which relates to money playing a smaller role in student self - expression (since commercial self - expression is tied to money - based clothing). This matches.
• Option C: The paragraph doesn't discuss commercialism leading to greed among teens. It's about uniforms' benefits, not greed. Eliminate.
• Option D: The paragraph doesn't call for students to stop buying expensive clothing. It's about uniforms, not student buying behavior. Eliminate.

Answer:

B. It ends with a judgment that money should play a smaller role in student self - expression.
