To enhance your reading ang thinking skills:Read and answer the question. HAS MISS KENTON CHANGED? For the first twenty or so minutes, I would say we exchanged the sort of remarks strangers might; she inquired politely about my journey thus far, how I was enjoying my holiday, which towns and landmarks I had visited and so on. As we continued to talk, I must say I thought I began to notice further, more subtle changes which the years had wrought on her. For instance, Miss Kenton appeared, somehow, slower. It is possible this was simply the calmness that comes with age, and I did try hard for some time to see it as such. But I could not escape the feeling that what I was really seeing was a weariness with life; the spark which had once made her such a lively, and at times volatile person seemed now to have gone. In fact, every now and then, when she was not speaking, when her face was in repose, I thought I glimpsed something like sadness in her expression. But then again, I may well have been mistaken about this. Question: Which of the following best states the main idea of the paragraph? A. Miss Kenton appeared largely unchanged over the years. B. I was confused by Miss Kenton and unsure of what to make of her life. C. Old age comes to everyone. D. Miss Kenton seemed to have lost the optimism of her youth. E. I never knew Miss Kenton well. -Jhairax-
