Question

read these two excerpts. how was the construction of the laerdal tunnel and the jiaozhou bay bridge similar?
a both included building plans and tools that were invented and created by students.
b both were built using computers to calculate exact measurements.
c both used environmentally friendly materials that can be recycled.
d both required the use of dynamite to blast through layers of rock.
excerpt 2
work on the bridge began with two teams building from opposite ends of the bay. this is a very risky process. the two sides have to be very precise in order to connect in the middle. if the measurements are even an inch off, the whole project is ruined. as with the laerdal tunnel, computers were used to make all the measurements.

Explanation:

The excerpt states that for the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge, computers were used for all measurements, and explicitly notes this is similar to the Laerdal Tunnel. No mention is made of student-created plans/tools, recycled materials, or dynamite for both projects.

Answer:

B. Both were built using computers to calculate exact measurements.
