Question

read the sentences from paragraph 6.
many people wanted to see the stunning view from the top floor, and they were given an option. they could climb the 1,860 steps (now closed) from the first floor to the 102nd floor, or they could ride in one of the building’s 73 high - speed elevators.
think of the suffix - ion. what is the meaning of option above?
○ tour
○ reason
○ choice
○ problem

Explanation:

In the sentence, people were given an "option" to either climb steps or ride elevators. The suffix -ion in "option" (from "opt" meaning to choose) suggests a thing related to choosing. "Tour" is about traveling, "reason" is about logic, "problem" is an issue—only "choice" matches the idea of a selection given.

Answer:

C. choice
