Abraham was healthy and strong, while the wild elephant was starved and injured. Abraham raised his head and trumpeted whereas the wild elephant stood his ground but did not charge.]

Answer 1

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The given passage is taken from the passage titled 'Abraham.' The passage is about a young 12 years old, 22,000-pound elephant, who served in a circus.

In the passage, Abraham managed to free himself from his trainers while on their way. After running for miles, Abraham land up in a forest. There Abraham meets his wild peers. The first thing Abraham noticed in this tall wild elephant, named Alpha, was that he looked ancient but was just 10 years older than him. It was because these wild elephants had repeated stretches starvation. These stretches led their skins to be wrinkled and his left tusk was broken because of fighting for the dominance.

So, from the given option that supports the claim about the difference between Abraham's life and wild peers is option C. Because Abraham was fed daily in the circus which made him healthy and strong and wild peers were starved and injured.
