A.  the site of the Final Mile Medal Celebration

A is the only possible answer. The article does not have any information about the number of RunTex stores in town, how to be part of Marathon Kids, or the history of child marathon runners. Summaries of an article should not include information that the article does not contain. The only information contained in the article that is also an answer choice is the site of the Final Mile Medal Celebration.

The correct option is C.
From the passage, it can be seen that the boys were very happy when the cub's boat blew up and when the cub appeared in church and was treated as an hero, they were dismayed. This is in contrast to the concern which they ought to feel for the cub, whose boat blew up.

Compare and contrast the literary techniques of allegory and ambiguity by offering a scenario to explain an instance where each
larisa86 [58]
An allegory is a literary technique that is somewhat like an extended metaphor and the goal of an allegory is to present a complex social problem by figurative meaning in order to grasp the full extent of the problem. A famous example of this can be the allegory of the cave as created by Plato where the idea of understanding the true nature of world is presented through people sitting in a dark cave. When they leave the cave, they are blinded by the sun but eventually they learn to see the world properly. He used this allegory because he believed that common people who don't work on themselves and only take things without thinking about them is similar to sitting in a dark cave and that illumination can be difficult but ultimately achieved.

Ambiguity is a literary technique that is used in order to present a plethora of different meanings without any meaning being the true one. It is great for trying to better explain issues that are not clearly presented as black and white. An example of this might be a debate on ethics and the nature of morality. Ambiguity can be used here because it is highly difficult to precisely and in a normative way to present what is good and what is bad and to describe why anything might be or might not be good or bad.

zzz [600]
It seems as though the author of this paragraph thinks that all mankind would be happy if they gave a second thought to what they are about to do. In a sense this is true, but yet, we would all be cavemen if we followed that philosophy. Thomas Edison would say, "Should I make an electric light bulb..... naaaah!" As you can see, we would not get very far in life if we did that. We would stick to normality. Some radical ideas are good, though some are bad. And in the branch of 'bad' would be necessary... necessary for the good of man.
