Question

A tightrope walker more easily balances on a tightwire if his pole

A) is held high.
B) droops.
C) is short but heavy.

Answer 1

B) droops.

Why?
To maintain balance, you do not need something short so you're balanced well... You need something long and droopy to maintain balance. The pole should be held by your waist and it should be light.

Hope this helps!~
