    Explanation
    Brian chooses to make his permanent shelter under a ledge at the bottom of the ridge. This location provides him with protection and cover from the elements, as well as a strategic advantage of being at a higher elevation. Being under a ledge also offers some level of safety and security from potential dangers, such as predators or adverse weather conditions. It allows Brian to have a stable and secure shelter while still being close to the ridge, which may provide additional resources or opportunities for survival.

    • Walking around aimlessly.

    • Following birds.

    Correct Answer
    A. Following birds.
    Explanation
    Brian initially finds berries by following birds. This implies that birds are leading him to the location of the berries. Birds often feed on berries and have a keen sense of finding them. By observing the birds' behavior and direction, Brian is able to locate the berries.

    • That he is too slow.

    • That water bends light.

    • That is bow is poorly assembled.

    • That his motions scare the fish.

    • That the fish need bait.

    Correct Answer
    A. That water bends light.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "that water bends light."

This lack of knowledge may be preventing him from accurately seeing the fish or misjudging their location, making it difficult for him to successfully catch them.

    • Shelter is important.

    • Only the strong survive.

    • Food is everything.

    • Never turn your back to another creature.

    Correct Answer
    A. Food is everything.
    Explanation
    The given correct answer, "Food is everything," suggests that the vital knowledge that drives all creatures in the forest is the understanding that food is essential for survival. In the forest, animals rely on finding and consuming food to meet their basic needs, maintain energy levels, and ultimately survive. This knowledge drives their instincts, behaviors, and actions as they constantly search for food sources and compete with other creatures for sustenance.

    At what time of the year is Brian rescued?

    • Early summer

    • Early spring

    • Mid-winter

    • Late spring

    • Early autumn

    Correct Answer
    A. Early autumn
    Explanation
    Brian is rescued in early autumn because it is the only option that corresponds to a specific time of the year. The other options (early summer, early spring, mid-winter, late spring) are not specific enough and do not indicate when exactly Brian is rescued. Autumn is the only season mentioned in the options, and early autumn specifies a particular time within that season. Therefore, early autumn is the correct answer.

    A. Ruffed grouse
