Read the following passage and choose the item (a, b, c, or d) that best answers each of the questions about it.
A university professor in the Southwest tells of a student who went on a one-day trip to the Grand Canyon. She didn’t return until a week later. When asked what had happened, she answered that the Grand Canyon was so amazing that she had needed three days just to get used to it.
