Which piece of evidence supports this inference?
(1 point)
a. In the heat of day, people are nowhere to be found, each hidden in an opal mine or dugout.
b. One of Coober Pedy's most popular destinations, the mine provides visitors with an opportunity to learn about the search for opals and the struggles of Coober Pedy's earliest miners.
c. Coober Pedy is one of the least accessible towns in Australia—the place where the old American West meets Mars—which is probably why it gained a reputation as the place where outlaws went to hide.
d. Tourists sit on the hot, dusty earth, shooing away oddly persistent flies as they lose all sense of time searching for opals in the dirt, hoping that the next stone they turn might let them retire early.
