Identify the sentence which represents a SHIFT in the style and syntax of the language used in this text.
A) sentence 1
B) sentence 3
C) sentence 6
D) sentence 8

Sentence 8 is way too simple when compared to the other sentences. Most sentences in the text have more than one clause and/or are in the passive voice. The most important difference, however, is the sudden use of the pronouns I and my, which is in sharp contrast to the rest of the text.
