    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    This statement is false because before cars were invented, people used various modes of transportation other than walking, such as horse-drawn carriages, bicycles, and even public transportation systems like trams and trains. While walking was certainly a common mode of transportation, it was not the only option available to people before cars became prevalent.

      True

    • B.

      False

This method involved scrubbing the clothes against the washboard to remove dirt and stains, and then rinsing them in the tub.

    Correct Answer
    B. Angler fish
    Explanation
    The correct answer is angler fish. The angler fish is a deep-sea creature known for its unique hunting method. It has a fleshy growth on its head that acts as a lure, attracting prey towards its sharp teeth. This adaptation allows the angler fish to catch its prey in the dark depths of the ocean. Glass frogs, sharks, and angora rabbits are not known for this specific hunting technique.

    • B.

      She has headache

    • C.

      She has a cold.

    • D.

      She has sore eyes.

    Correct Answer
    A. She has allergies.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "She has allergies" because allergies can cause symptoms such as sore eyes, headache, and cold-like symptoms. Allergies occur when the immune system overreacts to a substance (allergen) in the environment, triggering symptoms like sneezing, itching, congestion, and watery eyes. While headache and sore eyes can be symptoms of other conditions as well, the mention of allergies suggests that the symptoms are likely due to an allergic reaction.
