Question

What sentence best re-states the paragraph below?

All skunks have a superb defense system--the ability to spray a foul-smelling fluid from two glands near the base of their tail. Skunk musk is oily and difficult to remove. If sprayed in the eyes, it causes intense pain and temporary blindness. Skunk kittens can spray when they are only eight days old, long before they can aim, a skill they exhibit only after their eyes open at about 24 days. Skunks attempt to give a warning before they spray: both Hooded and Striped skunks stamp their front feet before turning around and spraying.
The spray from a skunk is difficult to wash out and can hurt the eyes.
Skunks’ spray is a powerful defense that is difficult to avoid, but skunks do warn before spraying.
Skunks’ spray is used to attack other animals without warning.
Skunk kittens are dangerous because they can spray before they can aim.

Answer 1

Answer:

I think it would be "Skunks’ spray is a powerful defense that is difficult to avoid, but skunks do warn before spraying."

Explanation:

Because the other sentences are either talking about the things that get mentioned in the paragraph or only a part of the paragraph. But, the "Skunks' spray is a powerful defense that is difficult to avoid, but skunks do warn before spraying", sums up the whole paragraph. :)
