Even if you are unsure about the first syllable of the word, you can find the correct answer based on the second syllable. The second syllable, brid, is short, you pronounce it quite fast, which is why you need to use the symbol </span>ĭ, which is a breve, and denotes a short syllable. Given that the second option is the only one that has that symbol, B is the correct answer. The first symbol, ī', is read as 'ai.'

Author substantiates his claim by offering above mentioned statement that 'since...adult until' recently the skills of the teenagers have been recognized by few employers as they felt teenagers are full of energy, vigor, and potential that may lead to producing exceptional outcomes especially in fast food industry as they would be able to understand the choices and preferences of the consumers who are mostly teenagers and work more diligently and efficiently as compared to other age groups.
