When looking for recent research about cures for the common cold, you come across a website with the suffix .edu. Here is what you find on the website: "Achoo! Everyone suffers from the miserable symptoms of the common cold. Lots of boxes of tissues later, you wish someone would fix you up as good as new. Well, folks. Guess what? Your wishes are about to come true. Our lab will win next year's Nobel Prize in Medicine for the discovery that all you really need is some hot tea and sympathy. Grandma was right, after all."

Why might you question the reliability of the author's claim that the lab will win a Nobel Prize in Medicine? (5 points)

Group of answer choices

The article seems like it was written to entertain. The claim is not verified.

A reliable article would not begin with the word, "Achoo!"

An article that mentions home remedies is usually folklore.

An article would not try so hard to persuade its reader.
