Question: 14
5. The author of this selection is most probably a(n)
- A. conscious naturalist.
- B. experienced hunter.
- C. inexperienced trapper.
- D. young Indian.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
The correct answer is (A). The writer's total fascination with and expertise on the subject of the wolverine leads us to infer that he is a naturalist. The fact that he is carrying a gun in wild country does not necessarily imply that he is a hunter. Prudent naturalists may carry guns for self-defense in the wilderness.
