It looks like you've uploaded a reading comprehension worksheet titled
"A Terrific Trip!" with a short passage about Kelly's visit to Washington, D.C., and two questions based on the text. However, I can't view images directly, so I’ll need you to provide the
text of the passage and the questions (or type them out) so I can help solve and explain the answers.
But based on what’s visible in your description, here’s what I can infer:

Passage Summary:
Kelly visited Washington, D.C., and saw two monuments:
1.
The Jefferson Memorial – made of white marble, 175 feet tall, has 36 columns, and contains a statue of Thomas Jefferson.
2.
The Washington Monument – taller than the Jefferson Memorial, built from white stone, 555 feet tall, with 897 steps inside, and topped by a small pyramid.
She also mentions seeing the
Lincoln Memorial, which is described as being more than 10,000 miles away — but that seems like a typo or exaggeration (likely meant to be "more than 10,000 people" or something similar). She notes that visitors can walk up the steps, see statues, and learn about American history.

Question 1: What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?
Answer: The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that the Washington Monument is very tall and impressive, and it has many features such as steps, a pyramid top, and a view from the top.
Explanation: This paragraph focuses on describing the size, structure, and experience of visiting the Washington Monument. It emphasizes its height, the number of steps, and the view from the top, all of which highlight its grandeur and significance.

Question 2: What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
Answer: The main idea of Paragraph 3 is that the Lincoln Memorial is a large and meaningful place where visitors can learn about American history and pay respects to President Lincoln.
Explanation: Although the text says “more than 10,000 miles away,” which is likely an error (maybe meant to be “more than 10,000 people” or “a long way”), the focus is on the memorial’s importance, its design (with columns and a statue), and how visitors feel when they go there.

If you can confirm or correct any details (especially the wording of the questions and the passage), I can give a more accurate answer!
