Express a personal belief, idea or feeling that isn't provable.

Express a personal belief, idea or feeling that isn't provable.

• A. Opinion
• B. Fact
• C. Sectors
• D. Intervals

Answer: (A)

This item is about telling the difference between what someone believes or feels and what can be shown to be true. An opinion expresses a personal belief, idea, or feeling and isn’t provable in the same way a fact is. Opinions vary from person to person and are shaped by taste, perspective, or value judgments. A fact, by contrast, is something that can be verified through evidence or observation. The other terms don’t describe a belief or feeling: sectors refer to parts of a circle or categories within an economy, and intervals describe ranges of numbers or times. So expressing a personal belief that isn’t provable fits as an opinion.
