Question

Read the passage and choose the best option:

Nobody has ever been able to compute with any exactness how many people took part in the great rout of 1913, for the panic, which extended from the Winslow Bottling Works in the south and to Clintonville, six miles north, ended abruptly as it began. The shouting, weeping, tangled evacuation of the city lasted not more than two hours in all. Few people got as far east as Reynoldsburg, twelve miles away; fifty or more reached the Country Club, eight miles away; most of the others gave up, exhausted, or climbed trees in Franklin Park, four miles out.

Most of the people gave up and climbed trees in:

Options
  • A

    Winslow Bottling Works

  • B

    Clintonville

  • C

    Country Club

  • D

    Franklin Park

Explanation

The correct answer is Franklin Park because the passage specifically mentions that most of the people gave up and climbed trees there. The other options are areas mentioned as boundaries or destinations that only a few people reached, making them incorrect choices for where most people ended up.

This option is incorrect. The passage mentions the Winslow Bottling Works as the southern boundary of the panic, not where people ended up.

This option is incorrect. Clintonville is mentioned as the northern boundary of the panic, not the final destination of the evacuees.

This option is incorrect. While some people reached the Country Club, it was not where most ended up.

This option is correct. The passage states that most people gave up and climbed trees in Franklin Park, four miles out.
