Sorry, can't help you on this one. My personal choice is not likely to be the good one. :(

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

In which way does the popularity of modern sports help advance a society? It allows athletes to amass wealth and give it away. It promotes the sale of merchandise during sporting events. It gives educational opportunities through sports scholarships. It gives companies an opportunitity to advertise during broadcasts.

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

OpenStudy (mathmate):

How many answers, one or multiple?

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

one

OpenStudy (mathmate):

All of these statements are true in some or many instances. Which of these actually help society in a meaningful way?

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

c does for education, but d helps jobs

OpenStudy (mathmate):

You have a good point, but "It promotes the sale of merchandise during sporting events." helps jobs too, even though both help indirectly.

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

oh so it woUld be B!

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

they're all so close

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Then why "It promotes the sale of merchandise during sporting events." and not "It gives companies an opportunitity to advertise during broadcasts." if both help jobs?

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

awe man idk.... but i can pick both!/:

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

cant*

OpenStudy (mathmate):

But you said only one answer?

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

But b only sales football stuff while c is advertising several business'.

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

d not c

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Actually all of them help society. "It allows athletes to amass wealth and give it away." would benefit mostly a few, and the instances of giving back are quite rare, unfortunately. Both "It promotes the sale of merchandise during sporting events." "It gives companies an opportunitity to advertise during broadcasts." help jobs for those who are already working for particular organizations, and not society in general. In addition, it benefits the minority who own those organizations more than society. "It gives educational opportunities through sports scholarships." gives an equal opportunity for the benefit for mostly young people who can later contribute to society, without having to benefit disproportionately a selected few. These are my thoughts, and may or may not be what your teacher is expecting.
