Question

Why did Emily stop by the pond? (D)

• A. To feed the ducks
• B. To relax and enjoy the scenery
• C. To talk to the older woman
• D. To pick flowers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. To relax and enjoy the scenery

The passage says:

"She paused by a pond, watching ducks glide peacefully across the water."

This shows that Emily stopped to observe and enjoy the peaceful scene, not to feed the ducks or do anything else.
