Question

fireworks operators usually fall into one of two camps: those who strive for fancy visual effects and those who aim for loudness above all else. the former group views fireworks as art, fussing over their fireworks for hours to produce amazing color and designs. the latter group isnt so interested in what the fireworks look like. they simply want to achieve the largest, loudest bang they can. skill is still involved, of course. it takes a steady hand and a lot of know - how to safely combine the chemicals necessary for such a loud effect. the thunderous sound that results is liberating and glorious.
text 2
for people who are sensitive to sounds, the startling bangs of a fireworks show can ruin its amazing visual effects. its not uncommon for holiday celebrations to last multiple days, causing some people to abandon their homes to avoid the triggering booms of fireworks. household pets can also be agitated by explosions in the neighborhood. thus, many cities in europe have begun using \quiet fireworks,\ which create impressive visual displays without any of the noise. quiet fireworks usually produce smaller displays, but they can be even more colorful than the loud fireworks were used to. its a small trade - off for keeping our neighbors—and our pets—happy.
which sentence best summarizes how the two texts differ?
text 2 states that quiet fireworks produce smaller displays, but text 1 suggests that quiet fireworks can be just as large as traditional fireworks.
text 2 describes how pets are negatively affected by loud fireworks, while text 1 states that both people and animals enjoy loud fireworks.
text 2 claims that making loud booms with fireworks takes minimal effort, but text 1 suggests that creating loudness requires great skill.
text 1 suggests that many people enjoy loud fireworks while text 2 discusses why quiet fireworks can be better.

Explanation:

Text 1 focuses on two types of fireworks operators (one for visual effects, one for loudness) and the skill in making loud ones. Text 2 is about the problem of loud fireworks (for sound - sensitive people and pets) and the solution of quiet fireworks. The fourth option correctly captures the difference: Text 1 implies some like loud fireworks (the second group aiming for loudness), and Text 2 explains why quiet fireworks (to keep neighbors and pets happy) can be better.

Answer:

Text 1 suggests that many people enjoy loud fireworks while Text 2 discusses why quiet fireworks can be better.
