Question

1. read the text.
2. i dont like roller coasters. nor do i like those \dead drops\ on adventure courses—where you step off a high platform and free - fall until the ropes catch you. i dread that feeling of losing my stomach while plunging downward.
3. so, you can imagine my anxiety after reluctantly agreeing to go zip - lining at seven peaks. when it was my turn to step off the platform and zip across the first canyon, i was shaking. but the pressure of a line of waiting people behind me helped me take the leap—and im so glad i did!
4. if youre hesitant to go zip - lining for the same reasons i was, rest assured that zip - lining is nothing like riding a coaster or jumping off a ledge. you never get that losing - your - stomach feeling. what you do get is the incredible sensation of soaring across a beautiful canyon. its thrilling—but not scary!
5. which sentence best summarizes the authors point of view about zip - lining at seven peaks?
6. it doesnt give quite as much of a thrill as riding a roller coaster or dead - dropping from a high platform would.

it is an unexpectedly thrilling experience, nothing like the scary feeling of riding a roller coaster or free - falling.
it is too nerve - racking because of the long line of people behind you, pushing you to leap before youre ready.

Explanation:

1. Analyze the first option: The text says zip - lining is "thrilling - but not scary" and different from roller coasters/dead - drops. The first option says it's less thrilling, which contradicts the text.
2. Analyze the second option: The author states zip - lining is "nothing like riding a coaster or jumping off a ledge" and is "thrilling - but not scary", and also was glad to have done it, so this option matches the author's view.
3. Analyze the third option: The text says the pressure from the line helped the author take the leap and they were glad, so it's not too nerve - racking in a negative way as this option suggests.

Answer:

B. It is an unexpectedly thrilling experience, nothing like the scary feeling of riding a roller coaster or free - falling.
