Answer:

B. David is not happy that his dad has moved them from the city to a home ten miles from town. When he finds an old, abandoned carousel deep in their woods, the idea of an adventure to learn about its history gives David hope.

Explanation:

Option B accurately summarizes the passage as it includes all the important events and ideas presented in it. David is neither angry at his father, nor does he hate him; in fact he "didn't want to harbor ill feelings against his dad"; however, moving to the country did make him sad as he "did not share his dad's affection for the country" and "longed to be back in the city where he had grown up."

Moreover, when he goes exploring the land to find out why the land was so devalued, he finds an old, abandoned carousel deep in the woods, and wants to find more about its history in the town library, which gives him a sense of adventure and the hope that there might be something for him to like in the country after all. The second part of the summary covers this half of the narrative accurately, and hence is the correct option.

Based on its prefix which is the correct definition of impersonal

AlekseyPX

The prefix "im-" usually means "not." Take for example the word imperfect. The prefix then causes the word to refer to something that is not perfect. Therefore, the word impersonal would mean that something is not personal. Meaning that personal thoughts and opinions/feelings are not involved.

African's were much more resistant to the diseases that the Europeans brought than Native Americans were. Therefore, they could survive more efficiently in the slavery conditions they were put in.
