We headed out to the beach closest to the crash area and it was packed with people. It was devastating news for everybody,” says
former major league pitcher Jose Santiago, a close friend of Clemente. “People were going, ‘Are you sure he boarded the plane? Maybe he didn’t.’ . . . Some would say, ‘He’s clinging to a rock in one of those little islands out there.’ ” What do the details in this passage state implicitly?
A. People knew that Clemente did not board the plane.
B. People had hopes that Clemente survived the crash.
C. People saw Clemente clinging to a rock.
D. People were devastated by the news of Clemente’s death.
I would have to go with D., because the entire paragraph of info relating to the Hispanic community is a quote. However, if D is wrong I would go with B.
