Which lines provide the best evidence that an animal as big as a plesiosaur could hide in Loch Ness?
A “Loch Ness covers more than 21 square miles, and only Loch Lomond is bigger. But if you
look at the volume of water, Loch Ness is the biggest. And that’s because it’s deep—about
755 feet at its deepest point.” (lines 18 through 21)
B “A book written in the seventh century tells about an Irish monk who saw a giant ‘water beast’
in the River Ness in 565 c. e. No one thought much about that story until 1933. A couple was
driving home along the loch late one night. They said they were forced to stop when a giant,
dragon-like creature crossed the road and slid into the water.” (lines 24 through 27)
C “Later searches relied on the use of sonar. This method involves bouncing sound waves through
the deep waters of the loch to detect moving objects. In 2003, the famous British Broadcasting
Corporation (BBC) sponsored one of the most thorough searches ever.” (lines 34 through 36)
D “There’s a word for such creatures: cryptids. It comes from a Greek word meaning ‘to hide.’
The Loch Ness monster is one of many cryptids that have captured the public imagination.”
(lines 40 and 41)
