D) However, the idea never dawned on me that long before Columbus ever left Spain, real-life people lived for thousands of years in what would become the United States.

This sentence has the most clarity because none of the pieces interrupt another. It begins with the transition that shows what follows is a change. The next piece is the narrator talking about the idea that never dawned on her. By having this part first, we know that the information that follows is the idea that never entered her mind until now. Then the idea follows. In option C the idea statement is interrupted by the actual idea. In option B the idea statement is interrupted by however. Option A has the idea statement after the entire rest of the sentence which also doesn't work for clarity.

Which prediction does this passage best support?
Stells [14]

Answer:

Fourth Option: The pigs will eventually change the Seven  Commandments.

Explanation:

Since they were pigs who reduced principles of Animalism to Seven Commandments, and only pigs are characterized as one's who are able to learn and reason, so the reader can predict that pigs may one day alter the seven commandments.

The first option (about new religion) is not correct because the rebellion of the animals is based on social and political motives. They are not going to make a new religion but just a new political and social order.

The second option (about Snowball's falling) is incorrect because it is insignificant and Snowball does not even fall from the ladder.

The third option (about animals not seeing the commandments) is incorrect because they were written large enough and high on the wall that they could be read even thirty yards away.
