Answer:
A story about a doctor who tracks and treats the outbreak of a virus.
Explanation:
This is the most likely answer to the question. In this passage, we see that the doctor and the reporter are talking about the likelihood of an epidemic. The doctor states that the prevalence of international travel makes pandemics more likely.

Option B is the one that would best address these concerns.
. The correct answer is A. subject. A subject is the doer of an action in a sentence - here, the pronoun you is the doer, or rather that word can name presidents.
2. The correct answer is D. direct object. The best way to figure out what the direct object in a sentence is is to ask the question What? or Whom? What/Whom did they elect? - (The 43rd) president.
3. The correct answer is predicate or verb phrase (I can't see the options for this question) - predicate is the verb in a sentence.
4. The correct answer is prepositional phrase. A prepositional phrase follows a preposition - here, the preposition is the word IN.
5. The verb phrase is would have given, and the word him is used as an indirect object of the sentence.
