Answer:

The correct answer is "They are trusting".

Explanation:

The short story "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" (also known as "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County") by Mark Twain is narrated as a retelling what a bartender heard about the gambler Jim Smiley. By talking about what a bartender heard, the narrator could be easily labeled as a trusting person. Jim Smiley is a trusting person as well, which could be noted in the story by how is he fooled by a stranger and had to pay a $40 wager for it.

<span>B Experts today estimate 20,000-30,000 laborers worked on the pyramid at any one time.

This is the best option out of all the options. The statement should support the idea that many people were needed to build the pyramid. Options A and C do not really indicate the amount of people the were necessary to build the pyramid. B and D are the only ones that give numbers. Option D however is not correct because even though it says that the work crews needed to be divided into smaller groups, it doesn't give a true indication of the sheer amount of workers needed. Option B is a clear estimate of the tens of thousands of workers necessary to build a pyramid.
