Answer:
1 On their vacation, the Slovins are going to go to India which they've both been interested in visiting ever since an Indian family moved in next door.
2 Because of busy work schedules, they won't be able to spend more than two weeks there.
3 They'll visit the Taj Mahal I'm sure, as well as two or three major cities.
4 Since the Slovins live in a warm climate, they already have suitable clothes for their trip.

Answer:
Jim lifted the heavy bag of concrete because he was as strong as an ox.
Explanation:
It is the fourth one because it is the only sentence describing someone/thing as strong. (as an ox.)
The first one has nothing to do with being strong.
The second one would be correct if it was "The boat was as strong as an ox as it persevered through the rough waters.", but since that isn't the sentence, it wouldn't work.
The third one is incorrect because if the toy was made to be as strong as an ox, why is it breaking into tiny pieces?
Therefore, the fourth one is right. :)
