Read the excerpt from The Ancient City. After exercising, the boys went to the bath house to clean up. Each boy had a strigil, a metal scraper to remove the oil and dust, and also a sponge to wash down. No gymnasium has been fully excavated in Athens. There is a round bath house outside the Dipylon Gate. A similar bath house forms part of the gymnasium at Eretria on the island of Euboea. These were furnished with hip baths. They had no integral heating system and relied on braziers for heat.

adjectives, for the appearance of the baths
nouns, for the different people involved
adjectives, for the actions that took place
nouns, for the various tools and materials

THE ANSWER IS D. USING FOR LATER REFERENCE.

(1) fire extended humans’ geographical boundaries by allowing them to travel into regions that were previously too cold to explore. (2) it also kept predators away, allowing early humans to sleep securely. (3) fire, in fact, has been a significant factor in human development and progress in many ways.
