Read the following paragraph. HELP A.S.A.P

Heroes come in many shapes and forms, but they all do uncommon things in unusual situations. They stand out. We've all heard stories of hero dogs that save their owners. One dog saved his owner by fighting off an alligator. Another woke his sleeping family when a fire broke out in its home. Still others rescue injured or needy people in dangerous situations. One dog even managed to call 911 when his owner suffered a seizure. But one dog, named Ginny, performed heroic acts on a regular basis, not just once or twice in unusual situations. Because of her kindness, many lives were saved.



What is an appropriate paraphrase for this passage?



A) A large number of dogs are heroes.



B) There are many stories about dogs saving their owners from a scary situation. A dog named Ginny, however, was consistently brave and saved a number of lives as a result of her courage and caring.



C) I read that hero dogs have saved a lot of people. I think this is admirable and can't wait to hear more about Ginny.



D) Dogs have saved their owners by fighting off alligators, waking a sleeping family when a fire broke out in their home, and rescuing injured or needy people in dangerous situations.

I believe the answer is correct because it provides a concise paraphrase of the original passage while maintaining its essential meaning. The original passage discusses the concept of heroes, particularly hero dogs, and how they perform heroic acts in unusual situations. It singles out one dog, Ginny, as an example of a dog that consistently exhibited bravery and saved lives.
