Read this paragraph. Jodi, Jan, and Seth peered out the window. They could not believe that a line was forming! Their flier had advertised tryouts for a garage band guitarist, because Epic Noise had been one musician short since their friend Zach moved to Michigan. Now it looked as though their need would be met. Eleven or twelve kids their age lined the driveway, some propping up oversize cases, and others with guitars strapped on their backs. The three hosts of the audition believed that they would find what they were listening for among the assembled crowd. Which statement best summarizes this paragraph?
A) Jodi, Jan, and Seth are hoping to form a band with the eleven or twelve kids lined up on the driveway.
B) Jodi, Jan, and Seth hope to find a better guitarist than Zach, because he was not dedicated to the group.
C)The Epic Noise band members are excited to perform for the group of kids assembled on the driveway.
D) The Epic Noise band members are optimistic about their chances of filling their need for a guitarist at their audition.

The paragraph described that Jodi, Jan, and Seth need a new guitarist now that their friend Zach moved. They do not intend to create a whole new band with the people who have shown up to auditions. The excerpt goes on to say that they think they "would find what they were listening for". This shows that the band members are optimistic.
