Answer 1

I don’t have the story text here, so I can’t be sure which choice is correct. Please paste the passage or a brief summary of how Jordan acts at the beginning and at the end of the story.

If you want to decide it yourself, use this quick method:
1. Find one or two details that show how Jordan feels or behaves at the beginning (words, actions, thoughts).
2. Find one or two details that show how he feels or behaves at the end.
3. Match that change to the option that describes it.

Quick hints for each option:
- A: look for early excitement that fades into boredom.
- B: look for early complaining/disinterest that becomes curiosity or gratitude.
- C: look for early confidence then a specific event (getting lost) that makes him nervous.
- D: look for early eagerness about food that ends in frustration about not finding foods he likes.

If you paste the relevant lines, I’ll pick the best answer and cite the supporting evidence.
