Question
read the following evidence and viewpoint.
evidence: studies have shown that sending or receiving a text message diverts a drivers attention for an average of 4.6 seconds.
viewpoint: cell phones should never be used while driving.
which best uses the evidence to support the viewpoint?
distractions, such as sending and receiving text messages, are extremely dangerous for those driving, which is why great care should be taken to avoid any unnecessary distractions.
on average, text messages take 4.6 seconds to send or receive, which is a major distraction while driving and performing daily activities, especially if one sends and receives a lot of text messages throughout a day.
cell phones are to blame for people who are distracted while driving, especially since studies have proven that sending or receiving a text message while driving takes an average of 4.6 seconds.
one major distraction that should be eliminated
The first option just generally says distractions are dangerous without directly linking the evidence (4.6 - second distraction) to the viewpoint (cell - phones shouldn't be used while driving). The second option mentions daily activities which is off - topic as the viewpoint is about driving. The third option blames cell - phones in a more general way but the fourth option (though cut off in the original problem, assuming it's similar to the correct structure) should directly connect the 4.6 - second distraction (evidence) to the idea that cell - phone use (specifically text - messaging) while driving (viewpoint context) is a major distraction that should be eliminated.
