Question

asteroids
by devin alastoro
there are many cool things floating in space. i am going to tell
you about asteroids. asteroids are rocks found in space. asteroids
are too small to be planets and too big to be meteoroids. sadly,
some people think asteroids are just ugly rocks. however, falling
asteroids can look beautiful. meteoroids burn up completely as
they fall towards earth. asteroids are big enough that pieces land
on earth. so, meteoroids arent as cool as asteroids.
asteroids summary
asteroids are rocks found in space.
keep summarizing. which detail should be included?
however, falling asteroids can look beautiful.
sadly, some people think asteroids are just ugly rocks.
asteroids are too small to be planets and too big to be meteoroids.

Explanation:

To summarize the text about asteroids, we need to include key details about asteroids' characteristics. The detail "Asteroids are too small to be planets and too big to be meteoroids" is a core fact from the passage that defines asteroids' size classification, which is essential for summarizing. The other options are more about opinions (people's thoughts on their appearance) rather than key descriptive details of asteroids.

Answer:

C. Asteroids are too small to be planets and too big to be meteoroids. (Assuming the third option is labeled C; adjust the label based on actual option numbering in the original problem, but the text of the option is as above.)
