Question

PART A: Which statement best describes the way the characters interact in the passage

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Dr. Ferguson calms the distresses of Kennedy and Joe, and they are able to  enjoy the journey under the doctor's adept navigational skills and travel wisdom.

Explanation:

The characters in the passage  Five Weeks in a Balloon are three men who travel across Africa with the aid of a hydrogen-powered balloon. Their discussion during the trip was quite lively. Dr. Ferguson controlled the aircraft. When Kennedy also suffered a fever, the doctor reassured him that he would be fine in some time and he did recover from his fever in a short while.

Joe was in an exciting spirit as they traveled and Dr. Ferguson because of his travel wisdom told Kennedy that they could not touch the breakers. He made his statements as a person with insight.
