My sister and I were looking for a snack. Way in the back of the refrigerator, I spotted two of our favorite yogurts. Perfect! W

hen I pulled them out, I noticed the wrapper edges were frayed. It looked like they may have been there a while, and one of the containers was smashed in. My sister didn’t care and was already running for a spoon. “Careful,” I said, “Where there is smoke there’s fire. These yogurts look kind of funny. And I can’t even read the expiration date.”
“You just want them for yourself,” she said, as she ripped off the wrapper. “Yikes!” she yelled, and we both held our noses.

What is the meaning of the adage in the paragraph?

A.If something looks wrong, then it probably is wrong.

B.Greediness is an unattractive quality.

C.Pay attention to the advice of those who know better.

D.It is not wise to make hasty decisions.

The answer is the letter C

Explanation:

An adage is referred to as a wise saying, and Where there is smoke there's fire is an adage. The question is asking for the meaning of where there is smoke there's fire. Where there is smoke there's fire is used to say that if people are saying that someone has done something wrong there is usually a good reason for what they are saying.

torisob [31]

Answer:

Answer C:

While the colony commanders were generally optimistic, as their task was to send the settler groups and hope for the best, the settlers had many other issues.

Despite the beauty and abundance of this new land, its wild and unknown aspects (hostile natives, new diseases, wild beasts) inspired both hope and fear to the settlers.

And the excerpt, from the begging, explores these feelings making the questions that the settlers might have asked themselves when entering Virginia.
