The correct Answer is:
To determine which suggestion is incorrect for reducing noise pollution in a party hall, we need to analyze each suggestion provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Evaluate the first suggestion**: - The suggestion states that the hall should not be built near schools and hospitals. - This is a valid suggestion because noise from the party hall can disturb students who are studying and patients who need a quiet environment for recovery. - **Conclusion**: This suggestion is correct. 2. **Evaluate the second suggestion**: - The suggestion states that the hall should use minimal carpets, cushions, and curtains. - This is an incorrect suggestion because carpets, cushions, and curtains are soft materials that help absorb sound. Using fewer of these materials would actually increase noise levels rather than reduce them. - **Conclusion**: This suggestion is incorrect. 3. **Evaluate the third suggestion**: - The suggestion states that the hall should not be used to host parties where loud music is played. - This is a good suggestion because loud music contributes significantly to noise pollution. Avoiding loud music will help in reducing noise levels. - **Conclusion**: This suggestion is correct. 4. **Evaluate the fourth suggestion**: - The suggestion states that the hall should not be used to host parties late at night. - This is also a valid suggestion as late-night parties can disturb the peace of the neighborhood, especially if they are loud. - **Conclusion**: This suggestion is correct. ### Final Conclusion: The incorrect suggestion for reducing noise pollution in the party hall is the second one: "the hall should use minimal carpets, cushions, and curtains." ---
