    Where do they stop for gas?

    • The Exxon

    • George Wilson's station

    • BP

    Correct Answer
    A. George Wilson's station
    Explanation
    The correct answer is George Wilson's station. This is because the question is asking about where "they" stop for gas, and since "they" refers to a specific group or person that is not mentioned in the question, we can assume that it is referring to a specific individual or group who has a preference for stopping at George Wilson's station for gas.
