Read the excerpt from "To Save a Turtle." Quentin didn’t help much with the beach cleanup, but he seemed impatient to see a crawl. Brenda could sort of understand that. The fact that he wasn’t sold on cleaning up wasn’t really suspicious on its own. After all, cleaning up the beach wasn’t a lot of fun. But there were other things Brenda began to pick up on as she observed him. She had seen Quentin sneak out of the cabin at night three times. If there had been a town near the camp, he might have been going out to a local restaurant or club, but the only thing nearby was the beach that led to the ocean. He could have been going for a midnight swim, except that he didn’t come back wet.

What is the most important detail from this excerpt?

a)Quentin does not like to clean up the beach.
b)Brenda notices Quentin’s suspicious behavior.
c)Brenda understands Quentin’s impatience.
d)The beach leads to the ocean.
