Question

1. for her report on homelessness, shay interviews a couple who lives in a homeless shelter. what is the most likely reason she thinks it’s an important source of information?

she doesnt have the desire to do any research.
theres no other primary or secondary source material about homelessness.
they can provide expert information about the effects of homelessness.
she lacks first - hand experience with being homeless.

Explanation:

• Option 1: Saying she doesn't want to do research is illogical as interviews are a form of research. Eliminate.
• Option 2: There are definitely other sources on homelessness, so this is false. Eliminate.
• Option 3: The couple living in a homeless shelter have direct experience, so they can provide expert (from their experience) info on the effects of homelessness. This makes sense.
• Option 4: Her lack of first - hand experience doesn't directly explain why the couple's interview is important. The key is their experience, not her lack. Eliminate.

Answer:

C. They can provide expert information about the effects of homelessness.
