Question

Syd Franklin was a kitten who looked like a tiger. He liked to crouch in tall grasses and growl at the grasshoppers. He was just a kitten, but he felt much bigger. He felt like a real tiger with giant claws and giant muscles in his legs.
Syd Franklin, at five months old, decided he was the toughest cat on the block. He told the other cats, "I'm the toughest. I'm the best! You old cats, you need your rest!"
Ninja the Bobtail laughed at his boasting. He said nothing and went on looking for butterflies. Pierre the British Shorthair hissed at the kitten and sharpened his claws on the old, red doormat.
Syd Franklin saw that the other cats didn't believe him. Syd Franklin squeaked, "I'm the toughest! I'll show you all! I'll climb that oak that's 100 feet tall!"
Ninja and Pierre giggled as the tiny tiger kitty climbed higher and higher in the tree.
"Look up here! Look at me! It's mighty Syd Franklin at the top of the tree!" he shouted.
"That's very good," said Pierre. "Now let's see you come down."
Syd Franklin hadn't thought of that! What would he do? He stayed up in the oak tree for an entire night! Finally, the next day he came up with a plan. He would dig his claws in the branches as deeply as he could. Then, he would inch his way down. It worked, and he got down safely. After that, he decided to wait until he was older to climb trees again.

Answer 1

The whole thing of the story is about a cat thinking he was a bravest/strongest,big cats ask him to climb up a free to prove himself,he does so,gets stuck in the tree,waits a while,comes up with a plan,gets out the tree,and tells himself he is gonna wait till he got bigger to do that again.



With this being said u can cross off answer option A and B bc they only summarize some of the story not the (Full) thing.


This leaves answer option C and B which do u think is correct and why?

It only talks about him not knowing how to get down,waiting and making a plan,then telling him self to try all that again when he gets bigger it never once states that the cats (Laughed) at him after he got down from the tree.
