Question

before you go
enter focus mode
many people think that running is simple. they think you just open the door and off you go. but this is not true. if you plan on running long distances, then there are three important things you need to do before you go.
the first thing you need to do is wear reflective clothing. this is especially true if you are running at night. when you are wearing reflective clothing, drivers of cars can see you much more easily. they can slow down and give you plenty of room when they pass.
in which paragraph does the author talk about running shoes?
a paragraph 2
b paragraph 3
c paragraph 4
d paragraph 5

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each paragraph (though only parts of paragraphs 1 - 2 are visible, we infer based on typical text structure for such topics):

• Paragraph 1: Introduces running misconception and 3 key pre - run steps.
• Paragraph 2: Discusses wearing reflective clothing (first step).
• For running shoes, we assume the text follows a logical order of pre - run steps (e.g., clothing, shoes, other). If we consider typical running - related advice, running shoes would likely be in a later paragraph. Since paragraph 2 is about clothing, and options B (paragraph 3), C (paragraph 4), D (paragraph 5) are later, but without full text, we assume the most probable (if we follow a common structure where after clothing, shoes are discussed next, maybe paragraph 3, but this is an assumption. However, if we consider that the visible part of paragraph 2 is about clothing, and the question is about running shoes, and if we assume the text has paragraphs 1 (intro), 2 (clothing), 3 (shoes), then the answer would be B. But wait, maybe the actual text (not fully visible) has running shoes in a later paragraph. But given the options and typical structure, let's re - evaluate. Wait, maybe the original text (not fully shown) has paragraph 3 as the one with running shoes. But since we need to choose, and given the options, and assuming that after the first step (clothing in paragraph 2), the next step (shoes) is in paragraph 3. So the answer is B.

Answer:

B. paragraph 3
