Question

read the numbered text a summary about the hot zone.
richard preston’s book the hot zone details the steps soldiers and scientists took to identify the deadly ebola virus found in monkeys near washington, d.c.
what best describes this sentence taken from a summary of this book?
it is objective because it presents personal feelings and opinions in addition to the facts.
it is subjective because it presents personal feelings and opinions in addition to the facts.

Explanation:

First, recall the definitions of objective and subjective summaries. An objective summary presents only facts without personal feelings/opinions. The given sentence (from the summary of The Hot Zone) states what the book details (steps scientists took to identify the Ebola virus), which is factual. The first option's explanation is incorrect (objective doesn't include personal feelings), and the second option's explanation is also incorrect for this sentence. Wait, maybe there's a third option not fully visible, but based on the visible options, the correct reasoning: the sentence is objective because it states facts (what the book details) without personal feelings/opinions. The first option's explanation is wrong (says objective includes personal feelings), the second says subjective (includes personal feelings) which is wrong for this factual statement. Assuming there's a correct option like "It is objective because it presents only the facts without personal feelings/opinions" (not fully visible, but based on the visible wrong options, we analyze). But since the visible options have errors, but likely the intended correct description is that the sentence is objective as it states factual content (details of the book's subject) without personal bias.

Answer:

(Assuming the correct option, if visible, would be like) "It is objective because it presents only the facts about what the book details, without personal feelings or opinions." (But based on the visible wrong options, the correct categorization: the sentence is objective, so the option with the correct explanation for objective (factual, no personal feelings) would be the answer. Since the visible options have incorrect explanations, but the intended answer is that the sentence is objective as it states facts about the book's content.)
