What authors purpose is suggested by the text?


I was very concerned by the school board's recent announcement that lunch breaks will be shortened next year. This may seem like a good idea now, but in the long run it will only hurt students.

Shorter lunches don't give students enough time for a real break. For the sake of all students, contact the school board today and let them know that breaks matter!
