Answer:

The heading that best confirms her prediction is C. Exercise and Relaxation.

Explanation:

It is common for readers to make predictions about the text they are going to read based on information previously collected. Reading the headline and skimming the text for some cue words help indicate the path the author has likely followed. <u>Suppose Marissa knows the text is about firefighter, either because she skimmed it or because someone told her so. If she reads the headline "Exercise and Relaxation", she will probably predict the text is not about what firefighters do while helping in an emergency, but about what they do on their free time.</u>

The other options wouldn't lead her prediction down the same path. "Ranks and Insignia" could be about hierarchy and medals/prizes for performing well; Essential Equipment would inform readers on what objects are necessary for a firefighter to do his job; Types of Trucks, as the headline says, would discuss the different types of firetrucks, their advantages and disadvantages. To lead someone to predict the text will address what firefighters do when there is not an emergency, the best option is really "Exercise and Relaxation".

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Nepal is a country in southern Asia, in the Himalayan mountains. It borders China to the north and India to the south. The country is characterized by natural diversity: in the south there is a narrow stretch of wetland plains with a tropical and subtropical climate, and moving north starts the middle hills that pass into the High Himalayas. Nepal has 8 of the 10 highest mountains in the world, including Everest.

Nepal is a culturally and linguistically heterogeneous state. The country is home to several dozen ethnic groups with distinctive customs. The predominant religion is Hinduism, but there are also strong Buddhist traditions. The Lumbini area to the south, the birthplace of Buddha Siddhartha Gautama, is frequented by Buddhist pilgrims.
