Answer:
The statement which expresses the central idea of the passage is:
B. Animals and humans all go through a necessary phase of adolescence.
Explanation:
By Duncan Strauss, the article "Animal Adolescence is Filled with Teen Drama and Peer Pressure" discusses the similarity human teenagers and animal teenagers have.
<u>Throughout the article, the author mentions different kinds of animals - elephants, dolphins, even birds and wolves - and explains how they all have some things in common among themselves and with humans</u>: during their adolescence period, all of them show risky and reckless behaviors; they all enjoy socializing with other adolescents; and their moods and preferences are frustrating to the older members of their packs or families, etc.
<u>This phase is necessary for humans as well as animals. Although tragic consequences may ensue - an animal can get killed, for example -, it is during adolescence that they all learn and develop skills that will keep them safer as adults.</u>

Explanation:
In the poem <em>So Tired Blues,</em> by Langston Hughes, the poet was so tired that he wished that if he could grab the sun with his hands, he will throw it away, across the land, because he was really tired.
The poem is relatable especially when a person has had a very hard day at work. He sometimes wishes that the day could pass quickly so that he can enjoy a good night rest.
