Summer was almost over, and the leaves were starting to fall off the trees. It would soon be winter, and everyone would be heading south for the summer. Donny didn’t want to be left behind, and he didn’t want to be a burden. He needed to teach himself to fly once and for all.

Trying to keep up while her friends walked rapidly in the direction of the fun zone, Cecelia criticized herself: Why had she agreed? Why couldn’t she just tell the truth?
As she struggled to reassure herself that she had made the right decision, Cecelia noticed Connor approaching the bench with a bag of popcorn.

“We went tiptoeing along a path amongst the trees back towards the end of the widow's garden, stooping down so as the branches wouldn't scrape our heads.”

Paragraph 4:

Read this paragraph from Passage 2.

There are also many costs involved in making movies that most people do not know about. There are the costs of the actors, directors, and all the other workers on the movie sets. The costs of the sets, locations, accommodations, and all the other things that are needed can also add up very quickly. Once the movie has been shot, there are many costs added in the editing process, especially if computer-assisted graphics are needed for the movie. Once the movie is ready to be released to the public, the costs increase even more. Advertising and promoting the movie, along with distributing the movie to the theaters can cost as much as the movie itself. All along the way, everyone involved in the movie is trying to make money and hoping that their movie will generate enough revenue to make a profit.

Why did the author MOST likely include this paragraph in the passage?




A to explain what goes into making a movie
B to explain why movies cost so much to make
C to explain why producers need their movies to make a profit
D to explain what steps movie makers go through to make movies
