PLEASE HURRY 20 POINTS IF YOU ANSWER SOON Select the correct text in the passage.

Which statement in the passage reflects the condition of a region in summer?
The different hemispheres receive different amounts of sunlight throughout the year. When the Sun’s rays are concentrated over a smaller surface area, the intensity of radiation is higher. The days are also longer, which means that more radiation is absorbed during a 24-hour cycle. When the Sun’s rays are spread over a greater surface area, they must travel through more of the atmosphere before reaching Earth. The intensity of radiation is also much weaker.

I believe the answer is “The days are also longer, which means that more radiation is absorbed during a 24-hour cycle.”
