The question
Choose the best answer.
Where does the campus tour begin?
- In the Main Hall auditorium
- At the Science Building
- At the dining hall
- At the Student CenterCorrect answer
Why “At the Student Center” is correct
Reading a schedule means finding an event and reading across to its place. The 10:15 line says the campus tour "leaves from the Student Center." Each wrong answer is the place for a different event on the same schedule.
Why the other answers are wrong
- In the Main Hall auditorium — That is where the welcome talk is held.
- At the Science Building — That is where the health careers panel is held.
- At the dining hall — That is where lunch is served.
