Which choice provides the best evidence for the
answer to the previous question?
A) Lines 1-3 ("About 750 . . . Ice Age")
B) Lines 26-28 ("Such a . . . the cooling")
C) Lines 49-54 ("The volume . . . the Holocene")
D) Lines 61-64 ("It’s not . . . climate impacts")

Respuesta :

Correct option is D. Lines 61-64 ("It’s not . . . climate impacts")Choice D is the best answer.

The author states in lines 61–64 that geochemist Gifford Miller's research shows that the medieval volcanic explosion most likely took place in Indonesia near the equator: "According to Miller, the possibility that an Indonesian volcano is to blame for the eruption is not entirely unexpected.

The apparent climate changes are more compatible with an equatorial eruption "Because they do not offer proof that the medieval volcanic explosion most likely took place in Indonesia close to the equator, choices A, B, and C are erroneous. Choices A, B, and C emphasize the strength, significance, and size of the medieval volcano.

Previous question is -

Where does the author indicate the medieval volcanic eruption most probably was located?

This question is from following passage which is adapted from Carolyn Gramling, “Source of Mysterious Medieval Eruption Identified.” 2013 by American Association for the Advancement of Science -

"About 750 years ago, a powerful volcano erupted

somewhere on Earth, kicking off a centuries-long

cold snap known as the Little Ice Age. Identifying the

volcano responsible has been tricky.

That a powerful volcano erupted somewhere in

the world, sometime in the Middle Ages, is written in

polar ice cores in the form of layers of sulfate

deposits and tiny shards of volcanic glass. These

cores suggest that the amount of sulfur the mystery

1147 and 1320 C.E. But when Lavigne’s team

examined shards of volcanic glass from this volcano,

they found that they didn’t match the chemical

composition of the glass found in polar ice cores,

whereas the Samalas glass is a much closer match.

That, they suggest, further strengthens the case that

Samalas was responsible for the medieval “year

without summer” in 1258 C.E."
