Question

1. part a

based on the passage, what is one problem the characters must face?
a they do not have food and may grow hungry.
b they do not know how to find their way back to adults.
c they cannot decide which of them should be in charge.
d they must hide a dog they have found from uncertain danger.

part b
which event from the passage best supports the answer to part a?
a jess bandages the dog’s injured paw.
b jess tells the children that she will lead the exploring party.
c henry goes to town to try to find a job.
d none of the children know where to find the dump.

Explanation:

(Part A):
To solve this, we analyze each option. Option A: If the passage doesn't mention food scarcity, this is out. Option B: If the story isn't about getting back to adults, eliminate. Option C: If leadership isn't a conflict, no. Option D: If the passage involves a found dog and hiding it from danger, this fits. Assuming the passage context (like a story with a dog and danger), D is the problem.

(Part B):
We need an event supporting Part A's answer (hiding a dog from danger). Option A: Bandaging the dog's paw relates to the dog they found, supporting the need to care for/hide it (since injured, maybe from danger). Option B: Leadership (Part A's answer isn't about leadership). Option C: Job - unrelated. Option D: Dump - unrelated. So A supports as it shows interaction with the dog, implying the dog is part of their problem (hiding from danger, maybe injured from it).

Answer:

(Part A):
D. They must hide a dog they have found from uncertain danger.
