Question

the writer wants a conclusion that states the main claim of the passage. which choice best accomplishes this goal? a. it is imperative that schools do their part to find volunteers for the many worthwhile organizations in the united states. b. schools that do this will produce more engaged, enthusiastic volunteers than schools that require volunteer work. c. studies in the fields of psychology and economics have revolutionized researchers’ understanding of volunteerism. d. it is important that students choose charitable work that suits their interests and values.

Explanation:

To determine the best conclusion stating the main claim, we analyze each option:

• Option A focuses on schools finding volunteers for organizations, which may not be the main claim (likely about student - centered volunteer choice).
• Option B compares schools' volunteer - producing abilities, which is not about the main claim of the passage (probably about student choice in charity work).
• Option C discusses studies revolutionizing volunteerism understanding, which is off - topic from a conclusion about the passage's main claim (related to student charitable work choice).
• Option D emphasizes students choosing charitable work that matches their interests and values, which is a strong candidate for a main - claim - stating conclusion as it centers on the students' role in selecting volunteer work.

Answer:

D. It is important that students choose charitable work that suits their interests and values.
