A.I. Explanation:

Correct Answer: the Lakeshore Lawn

Why this is correct: Leah wants a picnic dinner. Only the Lakeshore Lawn row says picnic food is welcome.

Tips: Find the need in the email first. Then look for the one row that meets it.

Why the other options are wrong:

• the Hilltop Meadow: The Hilltop Meadow has food trucks and does not allow outside food.
• the Garden Courtyard: The Garden Courtyard row says no outside food, so a picnic is not allowed.
• Civic Hall: Civic Hall is only where the Hilltop film moves in heavy rain. It is not one of the three sites.

Correct Answer: 7:00 p.m.

Why this is correct: Sana and Leah are going to the Lakeshore Lawn. Its row says the gates open at 7:00 p.m.

Tips: A row can show two times. Check if the email means the gates or the film.

Why the other options are wrong:

• 7:30 p.m.: The gates open at 7:30 p.m. at the Hilltop Meadow, not at the lawn.
• 6:30 p.m.: 6:30 p.m. is when the gates open at the Garden Courtyard.
• 8:00 p.m.: 8:00 p.m. is when the film starts at the lawn. The gates open earlier.

Correct Answer: large umbrella

Why this is correct: The note under the table says large umbrellas block the view. They are not allowed at any site.

Tips: Words like block the view point you to a rule. Look for that rule in the note.

Why the other options are wrong:

• small personal umbrella: The note says small personal umbrellas are fine, so Leah can bring one.
• lantern: The lawn row says lanterns are welcome. Sana is even bringing her own.
• low chair: The lawn row allows blankets and low chairs, so a low chair is fine.

Correct Answer: is cancelled with a full refund

Why this is correct: Their film is at the Lakeshore Lawn. Its row says the film is cancelled in heavy rain, with a full refund.

Tips: Each site has its own rain plan. Match the plan to the site they chose.

Why the other options are wrong:

• moves to Civic Hall: Only the Hilltop Meadow film moves to Civic Hall in heavy rain.
• moves to the library hall: The Garden Courtyard film moves to the library hall, not the lawn film.
• is postponed to the next week: Films are postponed only for a thunderstorm warning. Sana is talking about heavy rain.

Correct Answer: 5:00 p.m.

Why this is correct: The note says weather decisions are posted on the event page by 5:00 p.m. Sana will check then.

Tips: The words event page are in the email. Find the same words in the note.

Why the other options are wrong:

• 6:30 p.m.: 6:30 p.m. is when the Garden Courtyard gates open. It is not about the weather.
• 7:30 p.m.: 7:30 p.m. is a gate time and a film time at other sites.
• 8:30 p.m.: 8:30 p.m. is when the Hilltop Meadow film starts on Fridays.

Correct Answer: invite Leah to a picnic film night by the lake

Why this is correct: Sana says they should go together this weekend. She plans a picnic at the lawn by the water.

Tips: The main purpose is usually in the first paragraph. Ask what the writer wants to happen.

Why the other options are wrong:

• ask Leah to book seats at the Garden Courtyard: Sana rejects the courtyard because it does not allow outside food.
• complain about the food rules at the Hilltop Meadow: Sana only chooses a different site. She does not complain about any rules.
• ask Leah to drive them to the film: Sana says they should take the bus rather than drive.

Correct Answer: the lawn has only street parking

Why this is correct: The email gives no reason for the bus. The Lakeshore Lawn row says there is street parking only.

Tips: When the email does not say why, look at the row for the place they chose.

Why the other options are wrong:

• the lawn has a paid parking lot: The paid parking is beside the library, for the Garden Courtyard.
• a thunderstorm would postpone the film: A thunderstorm changes the date of the film. It has nothing to do with how they travel.
• the gates open before the buses stop: The guide says nothing about bus times, so this is not supported.

Correct Answer: excited but ready for a change in the weather

Why this is correct: Sana says a film by the water sounds perfect. She also plans to check the weather decision and text Leah.

Tips: For feelings, look at words like perfect or rather. They show the writer's mood.

Why the other options are wrong:

• worried that Leah will not enjoy the film: Sana chose the lawn because Leah wants a picnic. She sounds sure Leah will like it.
• annoyed about the rules at the lawn: Sana follows the umbrella rule without any complaint.
• bored with the outdoor sites: Sana says a film by the water sounds perfect. She is not bored.
