I don’t have Part A or your answer — could you paste it? That will let me pick the BEST supporting quote.
If you want to choose on your own, match the claim in Part A to the quote that directly provides evidence:
- If Part A says travel was delayed by a violent storm/flooding, pick the first quote: "...Some little rain...the wind increased to a Storm...throwing the water of the river with immense waves out of its banks almost over whelming us in water..."
- If Part A says they kept the Native people under strict control, pick the second: "we find the Indians easy ruled and kept in order by a Stricter indifference towards them..."
- If Part A says they decided to remain until April but could have reached the timbered country or waterfalls, pick the third: "...having made up our minds to remain until the 1st of April...it is true that we could even travel now on our return as far as the timbered country reaches, or to the falls of the river..."
- If Part A says they could not proceed because deep snow lay on the Columbia plains, pick the fourth: "but further it would be madness for us to attempt to proceed until April, as the Indians inform us that the snows lye knee deep in the plains of Columbia during the winter..."
