While libraries were once known for being places where people spoke only in hushed voices, the times have changed. As libraries have evolved over the years, so should policies and expectations about noise levels.
Libraries were once centered primarily on books and quiet reading. Back then, it made sense that people were expected to keep a very low noise level. Now, though, libraries have many different types of technology, such as computers and printers. Many of these types of technology have audio components. People should be allowed, within reason, to make full use of the technology, including sound.
Another change is that libraries have increasingly become community gathering spaces. They commonly have areas designated for teens. If libraries want teens and other community members to feel comfortable gathering there, then they must expect a certain level of noise.
Some may argue that there are still people who want to study or read in a quiet space. There is no reason that this is incompatible with libraries allowing more noise. Libraries can set aside a room or section as a designated quiet space for people who wish to avoid noise.
Which sentence could be used to begin a concluding paragraph to this essay that maintains the tone?
🅰🅽🆂🆆🅴🆁: Policies and expectations in libraries should keep up with changes in the ways people use them.

Every morning, students across town leave their homes an hour before school begins. Traffic in the area surrounding our school has gotten so bad that it can take 20 minutes for a car to travel the last half of a mile to reach the school parking lot. Staggered start times would help alleviate this problem. If students were to arrive at school in waves, then this would greatly reduce the amount of time it takes for students to get to school. That extra half hour that would be saved would mean an extra half hour of sleep, study time, or time with family. Time spent on a bus or in a car is not as productive as time spent at home.
The daily traffic jam hurts all of us in different ways. The environmental impact of cars and buses sitting immobile and emitting fumes dangerous to the environment has to be considered. On days that are particularly bad, many parents are late to work. Students arrive to school feeling antsy because they have started their day cooped up in a stopped vehicle and are not as productive as they would be if their morning routine were more relaxed.
Many people say that the solution is for more students to use public transportation, ride a bike, or walk to school. These options are not available to everyone. There are sidewalks in the area immediately surrounding the school; but, if you travel more than a quarter of a mile away, the sidewalks disappear. Do we really want children riding bikes and walking in the heavy morning traffic? The closest bus stop is more than a mile away. This option is better for the environment, but it poses great safety risks. Staggered start times could alleviate some of the danger currently threatening pedestrians, and more students would likely walk or ride a bike to school if traffic were not so bad.
Which sentence could begin a conclusion to this essay?
🅰🅽🆂🆆🅴🆁: School and city officials should consider staggering start times for students at our school for the safety and well-being of all involved.
