Question

question 1 of 5
the reading describes foul-smelling stuff as coming from:
a. cans full of meat.
b. beef in the cellars.
c. jars full of chemicals.
d. boils on the cattle.

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall relevant content (likely from a reading about meatpacking or similar). The "foul - smelling stuff" in such contexts (like Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle") is associated with boils on the cattle, as diseased cattle with boils would produce foul - smelling products. Option A: Cans of meat are the end product, not the source of the smell. Option B: Beef in cellars doesn't inherently produce foul smell unless diseased, but the key source here is boils on cattle. Option C: Jars of chemicals are not related to the foul smell from meat - related products. So the correct answer is D.

Answer:

D. Boils on the cattle.
