"He found that children and adults who have read stories their whole lives were more likely to correctly identify the feelings and thoughts of others than those who do not read regularly."
"Trying to understand these characters exercises the same mental muscle that helps us understand people in the real world."
Explanation:
First, let's take a look at the statement:
"People who read stories are better at sharing and understanding other people's feelings."
The question asks us to find two other statements that support the sentence above. To do that, <u>we can simply ask why or how we know this. Why do people who read stories understand other people's feelings better? How do we know that this is true? Whatever statement answers these questions is providing evidence or supporting them by explaining them.</u>
<u>The two last options are the best ones, in this case. People who read stories understand others' feelings better because they exercise the same mental muscle that does that understanding when they read. They do so by trying to understand the characters. This is what the last option tells us. How do we know that this is true? Because the researcher found out that children and adults who have read stories all their lives are more likely to identify feelings correctly. This is what the second to last option tells us.</u>
