Answer:
The U.S. Army wants to locate bears that have dens on their training grounds. It hired John, a biologist in Alaska, to find out where the bears hibernate.
Explanation:
A summary is a shortened version of a piece of writing, such as a paragraph, excerpt, chapter, or an entire book. It should include the main ideas of the text and only the most important details.
The option that fulfills these criteria is the first one. It summarizes what the text is about - about how the U.S. Army wants to locate bears that have dens on their training ground and how it hired a biologist named John to find them. The main point is covered and there are no unnecessary details.
The second option is the second best. However, it doesn't include some important details - the location and the name of the biologist.
The third and fourth options are incorrect because they include too much detail.
I personally think that the answer is C
There's no passage so please provide it.
Without the word spring in the first sentence of this paragraph, how would you know the time of year in which the story takes place? The following options apply:
-Buds on the trees were swelling.
-The association of youth and gladness with the rebirth symbolized by spring.
The swelling buds point to a specific time in the life cycle of trees while the association of youth and gladness as elements of spring, of the rebirth of spring, is quite strong in this paragraph, specially as “youth and gladness” are located clearly on the sky and earth.
The remaining option, “Branches rustled faintly in the fresh breeze”, doesn’t provide a link to spring as strong as the other options.
