Answer: B

PASSAGE

Daniel's apartment was spotless—books arranged by color, dishes washed immediately after meals, not a single item out of place. Yet when his sister visited for the first time in years, she found him sitting in darkness, staring at the wall.

What does the passage suggest about Daniel?

A. He is completely content with his life.
B. Outward order may mask inner turmoil.✓ Correct
C. He enjoys having visitors frequently.
D. He prefers disorganized living spaces.

Detailed Explanation

Perfect external order (spotless apartment) contrasts with sitting in darkness—suggesting internal distress despite surface control.

Key Evidence:

• "spotless"

• "sitting in darkness, staring at the wall"

Why others are wrong: A (Sitting in darkness suggests unhappiness.), C (Sister visited 'for the first time in years.'), D (The apartment was extremely organized.).
