Which is more prestigious to a marathon runner, competing in a race with friends or being invited to run in an event in another country? Why?

i would say with friends because with friends you are more emotionally attatched and wanting to beat them. Plus there is some fun involved and when you are with someone you know rather than strangers you feel more confident because you know some of their weaknesses and some strengths. Therefore you would be able to have more of an advantage in a race with friends rather then an event farther away.

i would say the answer is b. zigzag lines of the leaves. i believe this is the answer because zigzag lines go in different direction while the other options like: the vertical lines of the trees, the dotted lines on the road, and the curved lines of the park benches go in one direction.
