Option 1:
Measuring the heights of every fiftieth person on the school roster to determine the average heights of the boys in the school
Comment: this might not be a good idea for fairness as we only wish to determine average height of the boys. Taking a group of 50 people randomly, might not give us the same number of boys every time.
Option 2:
Calling every third person on the soccer team’s roster to determine how many of the team members have completed their fundraising assignment
Comment: The context doesn't seem to need a sampling. The number of players in a soccer team is considerably small. We can find exact data by asking in person.
Option 3:
Observing every person walking down Main Street at 5 p.m. one evening to determine the percentage of people who wear glasses
Comment: To get a more accurate result and fairer sampling, the period of observing could have been longer, for example, observing for 12 hours on that day, or an alternative is to observe at 5 pm for 7 days in a row. It could happen that no one walking down the Main street precisely at 5 pm wears glasses, or it could happen the other way around.
Option 4:
Sending a confidential e-mail survey to every one-hundredth parent in the school district to determine the overall satisfaction of the residents of the town taking a poll in the lunch room (where all students currently have to eat lunch) to determine the number of students who want to be able to leave campus during lunch.
Comment: This sampling does fairly represent the population, although it might be an idea to scale down the sample population, i.e. every fiftieth parent.
Answer: Option 4
Answer:
They are televising his interview throughout the world.
Explanation:
The subject here is televised,
The receiver of the action, that is ; what was televised (his interview) is the subject in this sentence. This makes it a passive voice.
To change to active, the subject, the receiver of the action (interview) acts on the verb (televised);
Hence, it could be expressed as :
They are televising his interview throughout the world.
This way the doer of the action = they (which could be the TV station)
The subject, 'his' acts on the verb televised.
