David is working harder to be a critical thinker and to look at information objectively. He is reading an article about a charity event for his school. Which of the following statements represents FACT, rather than opinion?
  1. The charity event was very successful
  2. The charity event raised $5,000
  3. Everybody had fun at the event
  4. All of the above
Explanation
Answer: B - Stating that the event raised $5,000 is a measurable fact. Choice A states an opinion. David may believe that the charity event was successful, but somebody expecting more money or different activities may disagree. Choice C is also incorrect because it uses an absolute term to state an opinion. It may be true that most people who attended the event had fun, but it is also possible that not everybody did.
