Why does Squeaky not know at first who had won the race in "Raymond's Run".

A. Raymond has climbed a fence.*
B. The May Pole gets in the way.
C. The finish is very close.
D. Mr. Pearson talks too softly.
I think it's either A or C

1. D

2. C
3. B
4. D

I doubt you'll get help with this book. I don't know of anyone here who has read it.

If you're still looking for the answer, it's C. After they crossed the finish line, before the speaker announced the winner multiple people started to speak. And then after the talking settled down, the story mentions that the loudspeaker was looking at notes before he announced the winner. (They were all probably debating who won or not.)

yo homie is right thanks bruh ur a lifesaver

In the story "Raymond's Run," Squeaky does not immediately know who won the race for a couple of reasons. One of the reasons is indicated in option C, which states that the finish is very close. The race is a tight competition between Squeaky and Gretchen, making it difficult to determine the winner without a clear-cut finish line. However, option A, where Raymond climbs a fence, is not the reason Squeaky doesn't know who won the race. Raymond climbing a fence is unrelated to the outcome of the race. Therefore, the correct answer is C: the finish is very close.
