Foti is reading an informational article about tsunamis. It includes this paragraph. Unlike normal ocean waves, a tsunami consists of a series of waves. One can be lulled into thinking a tsunami event is over after the first wave passes. Yet there may be several more waves off shore, and it can be up to two hours before the next tsunami wave arrives. Therefore, if you are caught in a tsunami, you need to wait several hours for all waves to pass.

Which of the following is the BEST summary of this paragraph?

A)
A tsunami is not like normal ocean waves. It’s a series of waves. You need to wait several hours for all of them to pass.
B)
Because a tsunami is not one wave, but a series of several waves that can be as far as two hours apart, you must wait several hours after the last wave in order to be sure the tsunami is over.
C)
A tsunami consists of not one but many waves that come in one after the other. Not knowing whether the tsunami is over unless more than two hours have passed since the last wave can be very stressful.
D)
When a tsunami strikes, get to high ground and stay there while you wait it out. Why do you need to wait? A tsunami is a series of waves. One hits, but more are coming. Do not go home until the last one has passed
