Question

Which detail from the passage does NOT help establish that the history of Mount McKinley began before Alaska was granted

statehood in 1959?
(6) "I don't like the name of Denali. It is not descriptive. Everybody in the United States knows of Mt. McKinley and the various
efforts made to climb it. In consequence, both Mr. Yard and I think that the name McKinley should stick.
(7) "Mount McKinley National Park" officially prevailed after its legislation was signed into law on February 26, 1917.
(8) It proved difficult to supplant words and meanings that endured for generations among Athabaskan groups living in close
proximity to the mountain. Athabaskan words for the mountain translate to "the tall one" or "mountain-big" (perhaps Riggs did
not know the Native words were descriptive). "McKinley" was incompatible with the Athabaskan worldview because they rarely
name places after people.

Answer 1

Answer: Everybody in the United States knows of Mt. McKinley and the various efforts made to climb it.

Explanation: This information of everybody in the United States knowing about Mt. McKinley and efforts to climb does NOT establish that the history of Mount McKinley began before Alaska was granted statehood in 1959 thus making the answer above correct.
