To start, one of the reasons why I like to vacation there is that they have a lot of cool places to eat, such as Bimini’s and Hard Rock Café. Not only do they have great food here, but they also play cool music. Another reason why I really enjoy the hotel is the fact that the hotel has a swim-up bar. You swim in the giant pool, and if you’re thirsty, you can get a Coke or a Pepsi for free at the bar. Last, but not least, the hotel has a really cool game room. Here you can play ping pong and arcade games like Pac Man. Overall, the Historic Hotel on Marco Island, Florida has a lot of kid-friendly resources, and I hope to go back on vacation there soon.

A student has chosen to use the following sentence as her second supporting detail for her paragraph about cats being great pets.
Supporting detail #2: Cats do not bark or make other loud noises.
Which of the following choices would be the best explanation of how the detail supports the topic sentence?
I love watching hilarious cat clips on YouTube.
Cats generally lead a pretty quiet existence, which makes them peaceful companions to live with.
This is why cats are great.
No one wants a loud, barking dog waking them up all the time. Cats are quiet, but they sometimes do make loud noises from time to time, which can also get very irritating but still not as loud as a dog bark.
