Question Details

Directions : Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow by selecting the correct/most appropriate option.

Reach Out! is an organization that runs week-long summer camps, designed to give young people the skills to be the leaders of the future. The camps help to create confident young people who wish to improve not only themselves, but the world around them. Varying in age from 12 to 17, young people come to attend the camps in Canada and the USA from across the world. They spend their time learning leadership skills, considering and discussing important issues such as pollution and health, and helping in the local community. They also meet many other people who have the same interests and beliefs and frequently make friendships that will last a lifetime.

There is no average day at the camp and changes are made to the timetable, which is handed out daily, to allow room for exciting events as they come up. However, camp members generally get up at 7:00 a.m. and, once they’ve eaten breakfast, start their day with outdoor games to get them warmed up for the busy day ahead. There are workshops in the morning on skills such as public speaking, and then there’s an hour for lunch at noon. For one hour in the afternoon, camp members have the opportunity to select from various activities that include dancing, yoga, basketball and song writing.

During the time at camp, there is a day known as Action Day. This is when small groups go out with an adult group leader to work with organisations in the neighbourhood.... Reach Out! This can involve organisations dealing with housing, journalism, healthcare or the environment, to name just a few. Evenings are spent watching documentary films or listening to guest speakers. The aim is to encourage the young people to go out and make the world a better place.

To prepare themselves and get warmed up for the busy day ahead, the young people :

Options

A

get up as early as 7 a.m.

B

eat a heavy breakfast.

C

partake in some outdoor games.

D

attend workshops.

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option C

partake in some outdoor games.

Solution :

The correct answer is: partake in some outdoor games.

Step-by-step Explanation:

1. Locating relevant text in the passage:
According to the second paragraph of the passage:
"However, camp members generally get up at 7:00 a.m. and, once they’ve eaten breakfast, start their day with outdoor games to get them warmed up for the busy day ahead."

2. Analyzing the options:
- get up as early as 7 a.m.: While they do get up at 7:00 a.m., getting up itself is not specified as the activity to get them warmed up.
- eat a heavy breakfast.: The passage mentions they eat breakfast, but does not state it is "heavy" nor that it warms them up.
- partake in some outdoor games.: The passage directly states that they "start their day with outdoor games to get them warmed up for the busy day ahead."
- attend workshops.: Workshops take place later in the morning on skills such as public speaking.

3. Conclusion:
Therefore, the activity they do to prepare themselves and get warmed up for the busy day ahead is to partake in some outdoor games.
