Which sentence from the passage MOST strongly expresses an opinion of the author?
Time to Go Metric
"Measuring temperature is also simple under
the metric system.
"It is time to get rid of our complicated
system of weights and measures."
Did you know that the United States is the
only industrialized country in the world
that uses the "Imperial System" of
weights and measures? This system is
complicated and confusing because it
uses one framework to measure length,
a second framework to measure
temperature, and a third framework to
measure weight. The United States has
been considering converting to the
metric system since the 1970s. This would
make sense because the metric system
is simpler to use than our current system.
"The only way to know these numbers is to
memorize them."
*The names of the remaining units include a
prefix that reveals the mathematical
relationship of each unit to a meter."
