Answer: randomly selected children ages 6 to 10 years from different random locations.
Reason: sampling from many random locations is most likely to produce a representative, unbiased sample of the target population. The other choices are biased (sports teams, book clubs, or a single choir) and would not represent all children ages 6–10.
