Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.
It was a glorious sunny day in southern
France and three friends, Jimmy, Benoit
and Pierre, were walking to school. Jimmy
hadn't done his homework and was trying
to persuade the other boys that it would be
a good idea not to go to school. Although
the other boys had dutifully done theirs,
Benoit did not think his was very good, and
Pierre loved being out in the sunshine and
really did not want to spend all morning
in a boring maths lesson.
When the three boys reached the small
footbridge that crossed their local river,
Jimmy waved a stick in the air and suggested
that they stop there and play a game.
They could decide to go to school a bit
later and, although they would probably
be disciplined, they would at least miss
some of the lessons. Jimmy also hoped
that he might get away with not handing
his homework in, although he did not
share this with his friends. Benoit and
Pierre agreed to this plan and started to
look on the path for suitable sticks.
After a few moments the boys examined
each other's sticks. Jimmy had selected his
first, when he proposed the idea, and his
was about 10 cm long and quite straight.
Benoit's was shorter, had a kink in it and
a leaf growing from one end. Pierre's was
the longest and also had several branches.
When they were satisfied that all sticks
were suitably distinguishable they dangled
them over the side of the bridge and
counted to three. On the count of three,
they dropped the sticks so that, when they
hit the torrent of water below, they would flow under the bridge.
The boys then ran
to the other side and waited, peering down
to see which one would emerge first. On
this first round of the game, Benoit's stick
came through before the others which meant
he won. Strangely, Jimmy's completely
disappeared, and they presumed it must
have got stuck or sunk. They liked this
game a lot, no skill was needed but they
could still be competitive and experimental
with the sticks they chose. They played
it for a few hours and completely missed
maths class.
Read the following events. Which was last
in the sequence?
AThe boys found sticks.
BThe boys reached a river.
CThe boys walked to school.
DThe boys looked into the river.
The answer should be (B) right? why (D)?
