ead the excerpt from "Healthy Eating."

Read the paragraph.

When people adopt pets, they often choose a puppy or a kitten. But people should give more serious consideration to adopting an older animal. Older dogs and cats make wonderful, loyal companions. Some people do not want to adopt an older animal, because they think they are too stuck in their ways and may have bad habits. This is often untrue. Older animals usually require much less training than younger ones. My neighbor, Mrs. Hendricks, said, "Older pets are already house trained, they are less likely to destroy items within the home, and many of them know basic commands." So the next time you visit the pet shelter looking for a new member of your family, think seriously about adopting an older animal. It just might be the perfect pet.

Read this excerpt from Jody Frank's blog post Surfing the Smart Lane: Technology Can Make Us Smarter and think about why she used these specific reasons to support her claim that advances in technology are beneficial.

I've given it some thought, and I now realize that there are specific reasons why advances in digital technology have helped me work smarter. Twenty years ago, I coded HTML web pages by hand in a text editor. That skill still comes in handy, but visual HTML editors, databases, and other tools let me build websites much faster and better than I used to. These tools let me focus on design and layout instead of on tiny, nitpicky details. By freeing my mind from the drudgery of writing code, these tools allow me to be more creative. They also protect me from careless typing errors. (When you work in code, a missing quotation mark or bracket can ruin your life, at least for an hour or two.) Fortunately, the digital technologies that sustain the internet connect me with a worldwide network of other web developers who generously share their knowledge. If I have a problem, it’s extremely likely that another web developer has already solved that problem and posted the solution online.

How might Frank's reasons influence her audience to agree with her?

A. The audience will see the personal benefits technology has brought to her career.

B. The audience will feel as if they know her personally and will respect her opinion.

C. The audience will want to have the same level of success as the author, so they will agree with her.

D. The audience will see how technology has made the author less creative and more disciplined, which will inspire them.
