Question

part b
which quotation from paragraph 1 best supports the answer to part a?
a \they ate meals at the dining room table.\
b \alice didnt like the food at school . . .\
c \she liked simple things, like the fruits and vegetables her father grew in the backyard garden . . .\
d \as a child in the 1950s, alice waters was a picky eater.\

Explanation:

To solve this, we need to assume the answer to Part A (not provided here, but typically related to Alice's eating preferences or habits). Let's analyze each option:

• Option A: Eating at the dining table is a general action, not specific to supporting a claim about preferences.
• Option B: Disliking school food shows a negative preference but may not align with the Part A answer (if Part A was about liking home - grown/simple food).
• Option C: Liking simple things like home - grown fruits/vegetables would support an answer in Part A related to her food preferences (e.g., preferring home - made/simple food).
• Option D: Being a picky eater is a general statement, less specific in supporting a detailed preference.

To determine the best - supporting quotation, we analyze each option. Option A is a general action. Option B shows a negative preference but may not match the Part A answer. Option C, which states she liked simple, home - grown food, is likely to support an answer related to her food preferences (assuming Part A was about such preferences). Option D is a general statement about being picky. So, Option C is the best choice.

Answer:

C. "She liked simple things, like the fruits and vegetables her father grew in the backyard garden...."
