Read the excerpt from "The Snow Queen. Then the Finland woman lifted little Gerda on the
reindeer and away he sped.
"Oh, I have left my gloves and boots behind!" cried
Gerda. She missed them in the piercing cold, but the
reindeer did not dare to stop. On he ran till he came to
the bush with red berries. Then he set Gerda down and
kissed her mouth, and great big tears ran down his
cheeks, and then he ran back. There stood poor Gerda
without shoes or gloves in the middle of the bitter cold
of Finland.
She ran on as fast as she could. A regiment of gigantic
snowflakes came against her, but they melted when
they touched her, and she went on with fresh courage.

a) she cries and does not want to go on

b) she is happy to leave the reindeer behind

c) she regrets having lost her boots and gloves

d) she is determined to get to Kay despite the cold

Please help! thanks

1) earth's crust is made up of relatively rigid plates that ride atop earth's hot, semiliquid mantle. (2) the plates are called tectonic because they're in constant motion. (3) they can move because earth's mantle is a very hot and semiliquid fluid called magma. (4) volcanoes are a result of magma rising up or erupting through a plate, particularly where plate boundaries are moving against each other. (5) also, when plates slide against each other, causing friction along adjacent plate boundaries, earthquakes frequently occur. (6) therefore, we often find volcanoes and earthquakes along plate boundaries. (7) plates may also collide. (8) when that happens, mountain ranges are formed. (9) for example, the collision of the plate carrying the indian subcontinent created the himalayan mountains when it collided with the asian plate. which statement about this paragraph is accurate?
