Lina holds the map over the frontispiece. The X is near which type of trees?

• A. Royal palms
• B. Birch trees
• C. Spruce
• D. Willow

Answer: (A)

Use visual landmarks to locate the marked spot by matching what you see in the frontispiece with clues on the map. The X sits near trees that have a tall, slim trunk topped by a crown of large, fan-shaped leaves. That distinctive silhouette points to royal palms. The other tree types would look different in the picture—birch trees show white bark, spruce has a dense, conical evergreen shape with needles, and willow trees have drooping branches and slender leaves. Since the scene around the X matches the palm-tree silhouette, the X is placed near the royal palms.
