"You're going to love tonight's dinner," said Dad, placing a steaming dish on the dining room table. "I'm calling it 'Everyone's Favorite Soup."

"I'm sure it's delicious," said Mother brightly. But Matt wasn't so sure. He loved his dad, but when it was Dad's night to cook, you never knew
what you'd get. After his first bite, Matt knew that "Everyone's Favorite Soup" was not his favorite soup.
"Oh, I forgot the salad," said Dad.
"I'll help," said Mother, following him to the kitchen. Matt saw his chance and took it.
"Here, Dusty," he whispered, motioning to his dog.
Why does Matt call his dog?
1. He wants to give his dog a hug.
2. He wants to take his dog for a walk.
3. He wants to give his dinner to the dog.
4. He wants his dog to go into the kitchen.

Answer:

3. He wants to give his dinner to the dog.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although it isn't stated specifically, we can make an inference that Matt will feed his dinner to the dog.

The phrase, "...Matt knew that "Everyone's Favorite Soup" was not his favorite soup," tells us that Matt does not want to have the soup.

Next, from the sentence, "Matt saw his chance and took it," we can guess that Matt is about to get rid of his soup.

So, from the information given, we can guess that Matt will give Dusty his soup.

The answer, then, is 3. He wants to give his dinner to the dog.

Good luck ^^
