The following passage is adapted from Ernest Hemingway's short story "A Pursuit Race."William Campbell had been in a pursuit race with a carnival show ever since Pittsburgh. In a pursuit race in bicycle racing, riders start at equal intervals to ride after one another. They ride very fast because the race is usually limited to a short distance and if they slow their riding another rider who maintains his pace will make up the space that separated them equally at the start. As soon as a rider is caught and passed he is out of the race and must get down from his bicycle and leave the track. If none of the riders are caught the winner of the race is the one who has gained the most distance. In most pursuit races, if there are only two riders, one of the riders is caught within six miles. The carnival show caught William Campbell at Kansas City.William Campbell had hoped to hold a slight lead over the carnival show until they reached the Pacific coast. As long as he preceded the carnival show as an advance man he was being paid.According to the text, what is true about William Campbell?Elimination ToolSelect one answerAHe is in a bicycle race that runs from Pittsburg to Kansas City.BHe works for the carnival as an advance man.CHe manages a cross-country bicycle race as one of the carnival attractions.DHe is running away from the carnival because he owes them money.

Today just isn't my lucky day.     As her heart began to give up hope, Suri saw lightning in the sky. The white flash reminded her of her grandmother."You must act without thinking about the result," her grandmother had once said.     "I must run because I want to," Suri told herself. "I shouldn't run because I have to win." Just like the flash of lightning, Suri felt a sudden rush of strength. She smiled and decided to run.What characteristic from the piece proves it is a work of fiction?*It is made up entirely of dialogue.It has a plot and a definite setting.The passage has many line breaks.Each sentence is written in meter.

If a person covers the same distance by walking by cycling and by running with speeds in the ratio 1 : 9 : 3 respectively, then the ratio of their times and speeds of the three modes of travel is?

In a car race on straight road, car A takes a time tless than car B at the finish and passes finishingpoint with a speed 'v' more than that of car B. Boththe cars start from rest and travel with constantacceleration a1 and a2 respectively. Then 'v' is equalto

On the way to her babysitting job, Mary rode her bike for the first mile. She stopped at a traffic light and waited a few minutes for the traffic light to turn green. She then walked her bike across the street and up a short steep hill. Finally, she rode the bike at a constant speed for one more mile. If Mary created a graph of her time and distance, which statement describes the part of her graph that would show no change in distance? Mary used her bike to ride the first mile. Mary stopped and waited for the traffic light to turn green. Mary walked her bike across the avenue and up a short hill. Mary rode her bike at a constant speed for one mile.
