Read the paragraph from The Hot Zone. There was not a uniform in the group, although a few members of the ambulance team wore ca

mouflage fatigues. The caravan crossed the Potomac River at Point of Rocks and hit Leesburg Pike just as rush hour began. The traffic became bumper to bumper, and the officers began to get frustrated. It took them two hours to reach the monkey house, contending the whole way with ill-tempered commuters. Finally the column turned into the office park, which by that time was filling up with workers. The supply van and the ambulance were driven along the side of the monkey house, up onto a lawn, and were parked behind the building, to get them out of sight. The back of the building presented a brick face, some narrow windows, and a glass door. The door was the insertion point. They parked the supply van up close to the door.
Which statement best summarizes the central idea of this paragraph? A)Withholding information from the public is routine policy.
B)Choosing a point of entry can be extremely tricky.
C)The military always takes many safety precautions.
D)Great care was taken to keep the truth from the public.

Answer:

D) Great care was taken to keep the truth from the public.

Explanation:

The way the supply van and ambulance personnel approached the monkey house support that statement: most of them were not wearing a uniform, and they did not enter through the main door but parked behind the building which “presented a brick face, some narrow windows, and a glass door.” All of this indicates that they did not want to be recognized, and instead, wanted to prevent people from seeing what was really going on. We can summarize, then, that the central idea of this paragraph is that “great care was taken to keep the truth from the public.”
