Item 12 Read the passage below and answer the question.

The centipede always wondered why he moved so slowly when, after all, he had a hundred legs. He thought about this question day and night. One day, as he was inching along, moving all one hundred legs as fast as he possibly could, a snake slithered past him. “Sss,” said the snake, “what a ssslowpoke.” “Hello to you, too,” replied the centipede, keeping his eyes to the ground. “I am fasster than you, and I have no legss at all. Ha, ha!” With that, the snake raced off, leaving the poor centipede in tears. The snake was so busy laughing and speeding along that he did not notice the boy carrying a container. “Cool! A garter snake! I wanted to find a centipede, but a snake will make a much better exhibit at the science fair!” The centipede smiled and did a little hundred-legged jig. “Sometimes slower is better,” he thought.
