Question

what evidence from growing change supports the inference that gardening can be a healing activity?
growing change
○ gardens on school grounds are used to teach biology, environmental science, and nutrition.
○ in portland, oregon, the multnomah county jail runs a gardening program for inmates.
○ even former industrial sites, like brownfields and abandoned rail yards, are getting new life.
○ \if you grow together, you grow together. that’s what communities do.\

Explanation:

To determine which option supports the inference that gardening is a healing activity, we analyze each choice:

• The first option is about using gardens for teaching academic subjects, not healing.
• The second option: A jail (a place with inmates who may need rehabilitation/healing) running a gardening program suggests gardening is used as a healing/therapeutic activity for inmates.
• The third option is about reviving industrial sites, not about healing people.
• The fourth option is about community growth, not healing through gardening.

Answer:

B. In Portland, Oregon, the Multnomah County Jail runs a gardening program for inmates.
