The answer is D. Last year, zoo visitors donated over $1.3 million to protect endangered animals.
Explanation:
To support a claim implies providing examples, reasons, or evidence that show the main claim is true. In the case of the claim presented, one of the most effective ways to support this is to include a statement or evidence showing how people learned by visiting zoos or any positive effect derived from visiting zoos. In this context, option D is the most appropriate because only because people went to the zoos they became aware of the situation of endangered animals and decided to donate to help these species.

Answer:
C. The author likens joy to sunshine to show how positive feelings can overcome dreariness.
Explanation:
This is a very common metaphor in literature: Sunshine is like an almighty force that can overcome pretty much anything.
In this case, Hector's joy is compared to sunshine, and there's no literal sunshine actually involved. Regardless, the figurative brightness and warmth of Hector's positive attitude is told to be powerful enough to overcome the dreariness (likened to gray skies and rain) that those around him may be going through.
The answer is D because it is the only answer choice that actually points out Hector's attitude as being a sunshine that overcomes the dreariness in others' moods.
