The garden was untended and overgrown with weeds and dying plants. which sentence best continues the description above? i could smell the fresh flowers as i gazed upon it. its orderly rows showed the care that it enjoyed. rich, well-watered soil must lie beneath the lush array. fallen leaves and blossoms spread out from its borders.

The correct answer is D. Fallen leaves and blossoms spread out from its borders.

Explanation:

The description "The garden was untended and overgrown with weeds and dying plants" suggest the garden had been neglected and overtime some plants such as weeds had grown with no control while others had begun to die, probably due to the lack of water, fertilizers, and proper care. In this context, the sentence that continues the description also needs to refer to the messy and neglected state of the garden and therefore, the best option is "Fallen leaves and blossoms spread out from its borders" because this continues with the same idea of the first description that is an unkempt garden.

it wants you to read whatever it gave you. then compare it to the others you read. you need to use textual evidence, and cite anything you do!

hope this !
