Question

Which introduction would BEST address the topic of cafeteria trays and food waste for a
school audience reading an argumentative essay?

Group of answer choices

Every student knows that school lunches are sometimes boring, but there's something else about lunch that causes a problem-too many trays full of wasted food.

Many schools have changed their lunch menus, offering more fruits and vegetables to help students eat healthy.

Cafeteria food doesn't always taste great, and sometimes students skip lunch altogether.

In our school, teachers are always reminding students to keep the cafeteria clean and quiet.

Answer 1

"Every student knows that school lunches are sometimes boring, but there's something else about lunch that causes a problem—too many trays full of wasted food."
