I could have given up, but I thought about my grandmother. She always told me that "people who believe that science is the answe

r to everything are missing out on everything else." With her words in mind, I searched some more. There were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. I noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways. This was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. I found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. They appeared in old legal papers, in the travel logs of Marco Polo, and in the Bible. I saw that the Chinese calendar uses a different animal each year. Dragons are included along with eleven real animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed.
The text discusses the Chinese calendar by writing, "Dragons are included along with eleven real animals."

What does that imply?

Dragons are the only fake animal on the Chinese calendar.
Dragons are not the only fake animal on the Chinese calendar.
Dragons are real because all the other animals on the calendar are fake.
Dragons are real because all the other animals on the calendar are real.

<u>Answer</u>:

The text discusses the Chinese calendar by writing, "Dragons are included along with eleven real animals” which implies that dragons are real because all the other animals on the calendar are real.

Option D is the right answer.

<u>Explanation</u>:

In the excerpt, the author starts his search based on the words of wisdom by his grandmother. Her grandmother told her that one should believe in science but one should also believe in things which wasn't proven by science. He finds the mention of dragons in almost every culture and thinks they aren’t fictional. He finds them being mentioned in stories, folklore, in the entries of Marco Polo and in the Bible.

He also observes that the Chinese calendar comprises of twelve animals, eleven out of them are real ones. So he comes to this conclusion that there is a strong possibility that dragons did exist so it is as real as the other eleven animals in the calendar.
