The young men talked over their next move as they drove. Big cities seemed dangerous, but the small towns were abandoned. Should
they head back to the ranch? Go deeper into the wilderness? Or try to find other survivors who were also on the run? There was no easy answer. No matter what decision they made, it would be risky. Based on the information in the story, why might any decision the young men make be risky?

b. They do not know whether they can trust the girl who says her name is Anna Johnson.
