Explanation:

Analyze the scenario

The scenario states: "Eunice's favorite food is chicken." We need to find the Spanish sentence that correctly translates or represents this scenario.

Translate key terms

Using Spanish Vocabulary, we translate the key terms:

• "Chicken" translates to el pollo.
• "Favorite food is chicken" implies that she likes chicken.

Evaluate grammatical structure

Using Verbs like Gustar, expressing that someone likes something requires the indirect object pronoun le (for Eunice) and the preposition a before the person to clarify who is pleased:

• The structure is: A [person] le gusta [singular noun].
• Therefore, "Eunice likes chicken" is written as: A Eunice le gusta el pollo.

Compare the options

Let's evaluate each option:

• Eunice no le gusta el pollo: Grammatically incorrect because it lacks the personal preposition a at the beginning, and it is negative ("does not like").
• A Eunice le gusta la carne: Means "Eunice likes meat" (la carne), which does not match "chicken".
• A Eunice no le gusta la carne: Means "Eunice does not like meat".
• A Eunice le gusta el pollo: Correctly translates to "Eunice likes chicken" with proper grammar.

Answer:

• Eunice no le gusta el pollo.
• A Eunice le gusta la carne.
• A Eunice no le gusta la carne.
• A Eunice le gusta el pollo. (Correct answer)
