Read the excerpt from Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe. My next work was to view the country, and seek a proper place for my habitation, and where to stow my goods to secure them from whatever might happen. Where I was, I yet knew not; whether on the continent or on an island; whether inhabited or not inhabited; whether in danger of wild beasts or not. There was a hill not above a mile from me, which rose up very steep and high, and which seemed to overtop some other hills, which lay as in a ridge from it northward. I took out one of the fowling-pieces, and one of the pistols, and a horn of powder; and thus armed, I travelled for discovery up to the top of that hill, where, after I had with great labor and difficulty got to the top, I saw my fate, to my great affliction—viz. that I was in an island environed every way with the sea: no land to be seen except some rocks, which lay a great way off; and two small islands, less than this, which lay about three leagues to the west. Which sentence best summarizes the excerpt? A. The narrator climbs a hill in his new surroundings and finds he is on an island. B. The narrator is unable to tell if he is on an island or part of a main continent. C. The narrator gathers his things and searches for a place to make a habitation. D. The narrator is unsure of where he is, so he sets off to learn about the island.
