I was in the National Forest with my camera. The day was crisp, and the leaves were turning gold and red. When I spotted the white-tailed buck, I froze. He wasn't more than 15 yards from where I was standing. The wind must have been right, because he kept on browsing the mossy ground. I lifted my camera very slowly. Carefully, holding my breath, I lifted the camera to my eye. Turning the focus ring, I framed the deer's head. Just as I was ready to press the shutter release, the buck raised his head. He was looking my way with wide eyes. Click. I took the picture. An instant later, the deer bounded away into the forest. He took off, but I had the shot. Today, the framed photo of that buck hangs above our fireplace. What season of the year is implied by the words you read in the passage?        A. Summer   B. Winter   C. Spring   D. Fall

Respuesta :

D. Fall. The leaves turn colors during the change to colder weather

The correct answer is D.

According to this passage, the reader may infer that the season in which the action takes place is fall.

This can be concluded from the fact that the day was "crisp", meaning that the weather was chilly, as it normally is during fall; but mainy from the fact that "the leaves were turning gold and red" as it can be appreaciated during this season of the year.
