Hi Nilüfer, let's solve this together. We have a table showing questions about students and the classmates named as answers. We need to find the correct statement based on this data.
Reading Comprehension
Let's list out each question and who it refers to, so we can check the options easily.
| Trait | Students |
|---|---|
| Generous (buys presents) | Emma and Gary |
| Unreliable (never keeps secrets) | Bruce and Richard |
| Aggressive (often argues) | Sue and Julia |
| Supportive (supports all the time) | Oliver and Robert |
Now let's look at option A. It says they can always count on Bruce and Richard. However, the table says these two never keep secrets. People who don't keep secrets are not reliable, so we can't count on them.
~~A) They can always count on Bruce and Richard~~
Option B suggests Gary is generous but Emma is not. Looking at the first row, both Emma and Gary always buy presents, which means they are both generous. So option B is wrong.
~~B) Gary is a generous person, but Emma isn't~~
