Answer:
<em>I can see that there are no choices.</em>
The main idea of text 8 is: "Do not fear spiders for there are only a few of them that are harmful to humans."
This supports the reason<u> why spiders are not actually very dangerous.</u> Many people are afraid of spiders thinking that all of them are harmful when in fact, <em>only </em><em>0.5% </em><em>of them are dangerous to humans.</em>
Explanation:
The question above is related to the article entitled "Eight Reasons to Not be Spooked by Spiders this Halloween," written by <em>Lizzy Lowe. </em>She has listed down the different reasons as to why <em>people should not be afraid of spiders. </em>Instead of focusing on the bad side of spiders, she focused on how amazing the spider is.
I'll post parts of the story that used the dogs as metaphors.
<span>"He chuckled as their muffled noises reminded him of whimpering puppies down at the animal shelter where he volunteered. Puppies always seemed to make noises as they played and whined for attention from the older dogs or volunteers. He liked working in the smaller dog area where all the older dogs looked out for the puppies, just like family, just like his family of older members looking out for the younger ones."
The metaphor of the dog gave me a clear picture of what their family is and how they act towards one another.
Their family is big in number and most of them are kids. They are a boisterous bunch and they enjoy each others company just like puppies. The older batch of cousins are like the big dogs that keep watch over the younger cousins like puppies.
Their family is big, happy, warm, and clearly enjoys each others company.</span>

Option D is the right answer.
<u>Explanation</u>:
In the excerpt, the author starts his search based on the words of wisdom by his grandmother. Her grandmother told her that one should believe in science but one should also believe in things which wasn't proven by science. He finds the mention of dragons in almost every culture and thinks they aren’t fictional. He finds them being mentioned in stories, folklore, in the entries of Marco Polo and in the Bible.
He also observes that the Chinese calendar comprises of twelve animals, eleven out of them are real ones. So he comes to this conclusion that there is a strong possibility that dragons did exist so it is as real as the other eleven animals in the calendar.
