Answer:

There were no trains that went to the Pacific Coast.

Explanation:

The given sentence implies that there were no trains that went to the Pacific Coast at the time the Pony Express was developed. Trains would be with no doubt a faster and more convenient way to deliver mail than men riding horses. If there were trains going to the Pacific Coast at the time, there would be no need for the Pony Express.

The war isn't mentioned at all, which is why we can automatically eliminate the second and fourth options as correct.

The third option is incorrect because we can't conclude that previous forms of transit to the West did not include mail. They probably did, because the mail had to be delivered somehow, but they weren't fast at delivering.

This is why the first option is the correct one.

IrinaK [193]

1. The topic sentence in the passage is underlined as follows: "Quilt making has ... expression for women."

The topic sentence discusses the role of quilt making in enabling women to self-express themselves.

2. The material that does not clarify or develop the central idea is: "They used dyed cotton fabrics ...; surprisingly, ... years."

This statement has no relevance to the topic sentence. It digresses from the main topic to discuss the materials used for quilting instead of concentrating on the social, political, and artistic significance that quilting generates for women, as captured in the topic sentence.

Thus, the topic sentence captures the main idea of the passage. Other sentences help to develop and support the main idea.

Hey Pal,

I have not received any letter from you off late. How have you been? Two months back when you wrote to me, you said you were going to Tokyo for your winter vacation. How has that experience been? Write to me about your time spent in Tokyo.

With summer coming up in a couple of months, my father has promised to take us to Kashmir. It is really beautiful in summer and I am really eager to visit the place. What are your plans for summer? Are you planning to come to India like you said earlier? If you are planning, what places do you want to visit? Do you have any friends and family in India?

Please visit us too if you have time. Do let me know in advance about your travel plans so we will try to plan ours around it. Do write to me when you get this letter. I am enclosing some photographs of our Christmas vacation in Goa. Hope you like them.

Cheers,

your name
