Cassie would like to add a heading above each of the following paragraphs in her informational text about Elinor Smith.

Elinor Smith’s interest in aviation began when she was a young child. She first flew as a passenger in 1917, when she was six years old. Her flying lessons began a year or two later. By the time she was 16, she had received her pilot’s license.


In 1928, Smith flew under four bridges in New York City. She was the first—and only—person to pull off this stunt, which got her into trouble with the authorities. Later, Smith set many other records, including the longest and highest flights by a woman flying solo.

Which headings should Cassie use to help readers understand the main idea of each paragraph?

A.
Pilot’s License; Stunt Flyer
B.
Early Years; Record Setter
C.
Flying Lessons; Flying Stunts
D.
Flying as a Girl; Flying Under Bridges

Answer:

B. Early Years; Record Setter

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for the selection of the topic for the first paragraph is because the main theme of the topic is the early years of the protagonist and how she started.

The topic "Record Setter" is best suited for the second paragraph, as the achievements and trail-blazing records are written about.
