Answer 3

It's B

Answer 4

Let's eliminate some of the options.

Rice takes cultivation in low, swamp-like areas. So that answer would be wrong.

While the Indians may have had corn and beans, they did not have wheat, so that answer is wrong.

Oranges don't grow that far north, so the fourth answer is wrong.

So, do fish, berries and nuts all seem likely in Oregon? Sure does! All three could be found there easily. Hunting was also still an option. There are plenty of deer and elk in Oregon, too.

Sometimes being too smart can give you the wrong answer. If only one aspect of a test question is wrong, the whole option is wrong, even if the other two options are possibly right.
