Most importantly, though, the highway bypass would have disastrous effects on the area’s

homeowners. As planned, the new road would cut directly through the middle of the Ellwood Acres

subdivision. Not only would this send more cars through the neighbourhood, but these cars would be

travelling at much higher speeds, putting children at risk. What is more, homeowners would have to

deal with the increased noise and pollution that would result from such a heavily trafficked road.

Finally, the new road would cause residential properties to depreciate. This means that families who

chose to move away would have to sell their homes for far less than their current value.

Which of the following pieces of information, if included, would provide the best additional support for

the author’s argument as presented in this passage?.

1. In 2008, the author's youngest child was killed by a drunk driver.
2. Pollution is harmful to the environment.
3. According to a recent magazine study, white noise (similar to that produced by traffic) was
