Read the passage carefully and attempt the following questions.

In this passage, Gerald Durrell, the naturalist, describes his attempt to look after some baby hedgehogs when he was a young boy.

On my animal-collecting trips for zoos to various parts of the world, I have had to mother quite a number of baby animals, and I have always found it a most nerve-racking task. The first real attempt I made at being a foster-mother was to four baby hedgehogs. The female hedgehog is a very good mother. She constructs an underground nursery for her young: a circular chamber about 30 centimeters below ground-level, lined with a thick layer of dry leaves. Here she gives birth to her babies which are blind and helpless. They are covered with a thick coating of spikes, but these are white and soft, as though made of rubber. They gradually harden and tum brown when the babies are a few weeks old. When they are old enough to leave the nursery the mother leads them out and shows them how to hunt for food; they walk in line, the tail of one held in the mouth of the baby behind. The baby at the head of the column holds tight to the mother's tail with grim determination, and they move through the twilit hedgerows like a strange pricky centipede.

To a mother hedgehog the rearing of her babies seems to present no problem. But when I was suddenly presented with four blind, white, rubbery-spiked babies to rear, I was not so sure. We were living in Greece at the time, and the nest, which was about the size of a football and made of oak leaves, had been dug up by a farmer working in his fields. My first job was to feed the babies but an ordinary baby's feeding-bottle was much too large for their tiny mouths. Luckily, a friend's young daughter had a doll's feeding-bottle, and I managed to persuade her to part with it. After a time the hedgehogs took to this and thrived on a diet of diluted cow's milk.

How do we know that the writer was a resourceful person?

A. Observed the mother hedge-hog and learnt lessons in rearing.
B. Had mothered many baby animals.
C. Used a doll's feeding-bottle to feed the hedgehog babies.
D. Gave diluted cow's milk to the babies.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

C only

The correct answer is Option (3) → C only

Here's why:

• Option A: While observing the mother hedgehog might provide knowledge, the passage doesn't explicitly state that the writer used this observation to solve the feeding problem.
• Option B: Having experience with other animals showcases general experience, not specific resourcefulness in this situation.
• Option C: This option directly highlights the writer's resourcefulness. Adapting a doll's feeding-bottle for the unexpected situation demonstrates ingenuity and quick thinking.
• Option D: Giving diluted cow's milk, although a decision made, doesn't necessarily require resourcefulness. It could simply be the best available option at the time.

Therefore, considering how the writer adapted the doll's feeding-bottle for an unforeseen situation, option C stands out as the best example of their resourcefulness in this specific instance
