Which choice provides the best evidence for the
answer to the previous question?
A) Lines 54-57 ("Much . . . Ernest W. Burgess")
B) Lines 58-59 ("It was . . . settlement")
C) Lines 66-71 ("Virtually . . . continuum")
D) Lines 72-75 ("As . . . home")

Respuesta :

Correct option is C. Lines 66-71 ("Virtually . . . continuum")

Choice C is the best answer. In lines 66-71, the author provides evidence that American cities in 1974 had a traditional four-zone structure: “Virtually every city in the country had a downtown, where the commercial life of the metropolis was conducted; it had a factory district just beyond; it had districts of working-class residences just beyond that; and it had residential suburbs for the wealthy and the upper middle class at the far end of the continuum.”

Choice A references a seminal paper on the layout of American cities, choice B identifies Burgess’s original theory, and choice D focuses on movement to the suburbs.
