Answer:

C.

Explanation:

"Young Innovators: Detecting Land Mines" is an article based on an interview of Marian Bechtel by Robert Siegel. The article talks about how Bechtel was able to invent a minesweeper.

Marian Bechtel is a 17 year old young girl, who loves music and science. Her both parents are scientist and have contacts with international scientist. So when one day, they all were playing cards and discussing about developing a holographic radar to detect land mine, and when another day she was playing piano and saw the banjo string resonating to the sound waves of piano, she had an idea of  detecting land mines by resonating sound waves. So, <u>she connected all her knowledge and began working on making a minsweeper. She labored on the project and was finally able to invent a minesweeper</u>.

So, the correct answer is option C.
