Hello there,
Why did the author choose to provide this fictional account of Iqbal Masih, who was a real person? Check all that apply.
Story:
My first impression was that he was handsome. Then I thought, No, he isn't really good-looking. But he had such eyes. They were sweet and deep and they weren't afraid. He was standing at the threshold of the workroom with Hussain Khan's enormous hand gripping his arm and we were all looking at him. The fourteen of us child-slaves plus Karim, all observing another slave. He was one of the many who had come and gone over the years, but we felt that somehow, this new boy was different. He looked around at us, one by one. He was sad, of course, like anyone who has been away from home for a long time, like anyone who is little more than a slave, like anyone who can't imagine what will become of him.

Explanation:
Counter argument is a statement which opposes writer's main argument for any purpose. However when a writer opposes one's own argument, it is usually for the purpose of including all point of views and aspects of the problem. In most of such cases the author negates (presents counter of counter argument) to finally establish one's original argument.
In this passage, the author is trying to establish the importance of making seat belts mandatory by law in each state of the United States. However in line 4, he presents some other people's point of view on this issue. And in line 5, restates his/her original argument. The overall effect, the author is trying to bring about in the audience by including the counter argument is that, he/she has already considered the counter argument as well.
The correct answer is "(Smith 179)".
The MLA in-text citation format comprises the author's last name and the page number of the author's work being referred to. These elements MUST NOT be separated by a comma or any other punctuation mark.
The option "(Smith 2015)" could be considered correct provided the author's work is 2015 pages long or more. It is most likely this number indicates the publication year of the author's work, rather than the page number. Therefore, this option is discarded.
