Summarize what seasons are used to describe

Read the selection and answer each question.Summer Campby Allison Kerbel(1)A giggling bunch of girls, aged eight and nine, scurries as a group down the dusty, rutted path to the lake. We have messily braided hair, scabby knees, and dirty sandals and feet. We head down the hill, covered in bark chips that get in everyone’s shoes, pass through the Senior Boys’ Unit, cross a small field, and reach the edge of the lake.(2)Earlier today, between noon and three o’clock, we arrived at camp. Fathers lifted our trunks, carried them into our cabins, and set them down at the foot of our bunks. Siblings gave us wisdom gained from previous years (“Don’t eat the gruel.” “Shower at least twice a week.”) along with secret candy to hide in said trunks, and mothers kissed us good-bye.(3)Once all ten of us girls made it into our cabin, we met our counselors and C.I.T. (counselor in training) and played a name game. Then we changed into our swimsuits and trooped down to the lake to take the ever-important swim test.(4)Now that we’re here, we hang our towels on the semifinished log fence. With the dirt and grass tickling our toes, we proceed down onto the dock and pair off. One partner swims while the other counts laps. You have to swim nine laps, or eighteen lengths, to be able to go into the deeper water. (This area is desired by all because it contains the floating raft, which is fun to load with more than the ten-camper limit and try to tip over.) Most of the girls in my cabin won’t be able to do it. They probably won’t even swim five laps, the number required for the shallower area between the docks. Most of the girls are first-year campers, and they’ll end up confined to “Beginners’ Bay,” which doesn’t get any deeper than three feet or so. Not me. At age nine this is my second year of camp. I’ll make all eighteen lengths or die trying.(5)My partner, a small eight-year-old with wispy, dark brown hair and thick glasses, whispers to me that I can go first. Not a problem. My confidence is sky high and absolutely unshakable. I jump right in with a splash that wets my partner and the other girls on the dock who want to count first. Then I start to swim: one lap of breaststroke, one lap of backstroke, one lap of freestyle, and six more any way I choose, including the dog paddle or any other method of staying afloat that propels me through the water. By the time my partner whispers, “Eight,” there’s a slight burning pull in my chest. I’m glad when I swim to the other dock and back for the last time, diving underwater to cover the last yard or so.(6)I surface, tasting water in my mouth and on my lips. From my shoulders up, the sun is almost unbearably hot. The water is warm near the surface and icy farther down. I feel suspended in space, but I can feel the space, silky and barely there. The counselor nods at me, confirming my achievement.(7)The tips of my toes barely reach the gravelly bottom as I tread water. Moving into shallower depths is always a choice, but I prefer proving my endurance to the onlookers I’m sure are watching. Looking up, really looking for the first time since last year, I can see the dock, a light pine color with blue painted edges. I see the rocky shore, the land beyond it covered in pine needles and shade from the immense trees standing guard above me. Behind them I see the mountains, all around me, in fact, purply blue and majestic. The lake stretches out for miles, edged by the mountains, and the sun reflects off the water so brightly that I have to look away.(8)The birds sing their tuneless songs from the pines. The lake gurgles and splashes in endlessly breaking waves that never reach the shore, products of the motorboats I can hear in the distance, out of sight but nevertheless present. The girls on the dock call out numbers in tireless rhythm but not in order; I hear, within a few seconds, “Seven!” “Four!” “Two!”(9)I smell the pines and the water, and the sensations are home, comfort. This is where I belong.QuestionWhy did the author most likely include paragraph 2 in the autobiography?Select TWO correct answers.Responsesto explain some of the rules at the campto explain some of the rules at the campto show that the girls are away from hometo show that the girls are away from hometo explain where the summer camp is locatedto explain where the summer camp is locatedto show that the girls do not want to leave their parentsto show that the girls do not want to leave their parentsto show that the girls had similar experiences arriving at campto show that the girls had similar experiences arriving at campSkip to navigationHighlightResponse MaskingBackNext
