Answer: Sam Steinberg was a foreign street seller that used to go to Columbia University to meet students and sell his paintings. He would always be enthusiastic about his works, saying: “Hey boys, I got paintings here!”, but rare was the student that bought something from him. When he passed at 85, most of his art ended up in the trash. He was not in museums, nor was he considered a great artist, but rather seen as a joke. When the students graduated, they left Sam's paintings as well, except for one person; Randy Nichols. When he planned his class' 40th reunion, he brought 90 of Sam's best works and displayed them for everyone. Many people came to see them, but they were packed in black bags and got mistaken as trash, so one more time, Sam Steinberg's art got a painful destination.
Explanation: The article tells the sad story of Sam Steinberg, a street seller that would visit Columbia University to sell his paintings to students. Unfortunately, a few were able to appreciate his vision and threw their works into the trash. It also shares how a student that loved his art tried to bring it back for everyone to see at his 40th class reunion. However, his art received an unfortunate destination and was remembered only by the few that knew him.
<span>C. Rand doesn't want to climb the rock wall because he is afraid.
I agree with C being the correct answer. Throughout the passage, he describes the sweat pouring off Rand and repeatedly talks to himself about how they won't let him fall. We don't know from the passage if Tad is in charge of his safety rope so D is out. A and B are both incorrect - he doesn't mention looking silly and his sweaty hands are just a piece of the passage.
