This question is incomplete. I have found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the legend titled "The Bird Chief."

All the birds were called together. To them was said, “Whichever one of you can fly farthest into the sky shall be chief.”  

All the birds flew to a great height. But Wren got under the thick feathers of Eagle and sat there as Eagle flew. When all the birds became wing-tired, they flew down again; but Eagle flew still higher. When Eagle had gone as far as he could, Wren flew still higher.  

When all the birds reached the ground, Eagle alone returned, after a great while. Behold! Wren only was absent. So they awaited him. At last he returned. Eagle had too highly been thinking of himself, being sure of being made chief; and behold! Wren was made chief.

How should a summary of this story begin?  

A. by describing how Wren hid under Eagle's wing

B. with the words, "Long ago, in a far-away land"

C. by explaining that all the birds came together for a contest

D. with the words, "Eagle had too highly been thinking of himself"

Answer:

A summary of this story should begin:

C. by explaining that all the birds came together for a contest

Explanation:

When we write a summary, our purpose is to tell something in a shorter, faster way. We must pay attention to and maintain whatever is essential for the story to make sense, ignoring all else in order to keep it short. In the case we are analyzing here, we cannot skip the beginning of the story, otherwise our summary will not make any sense. For that reason, we must begin by explaining that all the birds came together for a contest. The contest is the reason why everything else happened in the story.

The answer should be B. It takes time to recover but never gets up. I believe that is the answer because of how the passage says, "the turtle was tight in it's shell for a log time. But at last it's legs waved in the air, reaching for something to pull it over." sorry about the long answer, i just wanted to show my reasoning behind my answer. Hope this helps :)

AveGali [126]

I've read this.

The answer is most likely four. Anne and her best friend Ellen, had to fake sleep when the Nazis INVADED THEIR HOME and Ellen had to hide her necklace. Whenever they heard about there brother-in-law getting killed, it  affected them. And Anne had to hide from the Nazis at one point to not get caught.
