Part A What is the author's point of view toward Azy's vocabulary mistake in "The Think Tank"? O The mistake is a major setback in Shumaker's research. O The mistake suggests that Azy is bored with learning O The mistake helpfully reveals the way Azy's mind works O The mistake proves that orangutans resist learning. Part B Which evidence from the text best supports the answer to Part A? O "Azy, a 21-year-old male orangutan, had been scoring 100 percent on the day's vocabulary test-until now." O "Azy lifts his long, graceful hand and points to the symbol for cup "Orangs' mental abilities are the least understood of the great apes.'notes the biologist." "Maybe this can teach us a little bit about how he thinks."

A) The correct answer is C) the mistake helpfully reveals the way Azy's mind works.

B) The correct option is D) "Maybe this can teach us a little bit about how he thinks."

Explanation:

A) Azy - an Orangutan in captivity which is being used for experiments in the behaviour of primates, especially learning, is presented with a bag containing food.

Azy is given options on a screen to select from, and instead of picking food, he picks another symbol which represents a container.

According to the researchers, the right answer would have been the symbol which connotes food. However, Shumaker is elated to note that the Orangutans have the ability to put things into categories.

B) In the last paragraph of the excerpt, Shumaker states that in his opinion, the mistake shows that Azy in his mind is learning or can put objects into categories and that that by itself could be a pointer to how Orangutans think.
