Which activity is particularly associated with the Winter Carnival?

• A. Building snow statues
• B. Hosting a talent show
• C. Playing basketball
• D. Singing

Answer: (A)

Winter Carnival in the novel centers on creating and displaying things made from the season’s snow, a playful, visual celebration of winter. That makes building snow statues the activity most closely associated with the event, since the carnival revolves around snow sculpture and the winter atmosphere. The other activities—hosting a talent show, playing basketball, or singing—aren’t presented as the defining feature of the Winter Carnival in the text. So the best choice is building snow statues because it directly embodies the carnival’s wintery, sculptural spirit.
