Answer:
B
Explanation:
First you can eliminate D because is shows nothing about whether the trip was fun.
While C shows they enjoyed the time, it could be 'what they needed' because it was relaxing or just an escape from reality. Not because it was incredibly fun.
A and B both show he most likely enjoyed the trip, but B is better because A still leaves room for questions. While in B you know that they enjoyed the trip because its directly said it was "the best trip ever", A he could be smiling because he's happy to see his dad or something else. B gives the most direct answer to the question.
Answer:
The emergency caused the crisis team to exhaust all the response methods in its safety plan.
Explanation:
In simple terms, the word "exhaust" can mean "to use up" "to drain out" or "to make something tired. So, it simply means something that is used up to the brim, until there is nothing left.
According to the sentence from "Play", the word "exhaust" is used in such a way that it signifies or denotes how each play material must be used up to their limit before new material is given/ added. Similarly, in the same vein, the word "exhaust" can be used in the sentence where the emergency caused the response methods of safety plans to be used up.
Thus, the<u> correct use of the same word "exhaust" is seen in the last sentence.

Your question is missing part of the passage as well as the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read the excerpt from "Broken Chain.” "Ponytails! Those girls who messed with Frostie and me had ponytails. Is she cool?” "I think so.” Ernie sat up in bed. "I bet you that’s her.” Alfonso felt his stomach knot up. "She’s going to be my girlfriend, not yours!” "I’m going to get even with her!” "You better not touch her,” Alfonso snarled, throwing a wadded Kleenex at him. "I’ll run you over with my bike.”
Which message does Gary Soto want readers to take away?
A chance at love is important.
Revenge is acceptable.
It can be an unpredictable world.
Family bonds are very strong.
Answer:
A chance at love is important.
Explanation:
"Broken Chain" is a short story by author Gary Soto. Alfonso is the main character, a seventh grader who wants to look "better than average". When he meets a girl and finds himself interested in her, Alfonso tells his brother about it. Ernie gets a bit jealous that his younger brother has found a potential girlfriend and teases Alfonso. As we can understand from Alfonso's reaction, he cares a lot about this girl. He quickly makes it clear he will take action if his brother messes with her. Interestingly enough, at the end of the story, Ernie will help Alfonso by lending him a bike to go riding with her. The message the author wants to convey is that a chance at love is important, so much so that the very brothers who were once fighting because of a girl learn to help each other. The possibility of love helps them grow and mature.
