Question 16 • Common Core ELA 11 - ELA3011 IC

Read the sentence from The Ancient City. Terracotta dolls of course are more likely to survive than those made of wood or cloth, and no doubt these also were common.

Answer
A
Children in ancient Greece played with toys.
B
Ancient Greeks valued wood more than cloth.
C
Many Greek stories were painted on terracotta vases.
D
More dolls were made from clay than from wood or cloth.

Explanation

The sentence says terracotta dolls were more likely to survive than wooden or cloth dolls, but it also suggests that dolls made from those other materials were common. Dolls are toys, so this supports the idea that children in ancient Greece played with toys. It does not show that more dolls were made from clay; the sentence warns that clay dolls are simply more likely to have survived.
