I think it is false because i had this question before.
Let's read the text again...
My grandfather the fisherman always told me that the best way to communicate with fish is to drop them a line.
There are three phrases that help us to understand the pun in the text: The grandfather is a fisherman, it means his job is to catch fish, by communicate he means to make the fish come closer, and by drop them a line he means the fishing rod thread.
Taking the above into account the correct answers are:
A.“communicate” and “drop them a line”
B.The pun plays on a phrase that means both to send a note and to attempt to catch a fish.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
I have trouble believing Mr. Sawicki's characterization of Steve, because he knows Steve only in school. Since Mr. Sawicki does not know Steve outside of school, he cannot make a judgment about what Steve has been doing in his neighborhood or who his friends are. Sawicki says Steve is honest, but even if Steve is good or honest in Mr. Sawicki's opinion, good people can still make mistakes.
What did you consider when you were writing your answer? Check all that apply.
what Mr. Sawicki says
. what other people say
. whether Steve is guilty or innocent
. what Steve has said
Answer:
what Mr. Sawicki says
Explanation:
The answer shown in the text above was created considering only what Mr. Sawicki says about Steve. The answer states that Steve's characterization through what Mr. Sawicki says is not reliable. That's because Mr. Sawicki doesn't know Steve fully and only knows his behavior in one place, at school. Mr. Sawicki does not know anything about Steve and does not even know how he behaves outside of school, so he cannot say that Steve is honest. In other words, Mr. Sawicki's speech is imprecise, it lacks evidence and therefore cannot be trusted.
