Answer 1

Answer:

B and D.

Explanation:

'Bumps ahead on easy Street?' is an article written by Marilyn Gardner. The article talks about Charlotte County in Florida which has become an alluring place for retirees to spend their lives.

The County is situated between two western coasts of the state, that is Sarasota and Naples. This view has made the County more attractive for retirees. The weather conditions during winter are warm in the County than northern states.

The idea that supports the claim that Charlotte County has become an attractive place for retirees in paragraph 1 of the text is that it is situated close to beaches and water, and the weather is warmer in the County than northern states.

Thus two options that are correct includes B and D.
