Question

Read the lines from the text.
Children should have a hand in caring for the dog, and whether it is walking, scooping up after, feeding, or brushing the dog, children are learning to care for another being. This responsibility also teaches them to look beyond themselves—it teaches them compassion for others that can translate to millions of other situations in their lives.

What effect does the author create by using the phrase millions of other situations?
A
It makes the author lose credibility because it is an exaggeration.

B
It makes the text more serious in tone because it implies that children will face so many serious situations.

C
It makes the author's claims seem more important because the skills children learn from caring for the dog can potentially last a lifetime.

D
It makes the text seem more forceful in its message, implying that the author thinks that children who do not have dogs will not be compassionate adults.
