"Alexander made a reconnaissance in person of the enemy's strength and dispositions and, despite the Jeagerness of most of his generals, he decided against a night attack. Instead, he retired to his tent to
devise his strategy. He ordered his troops to be well fed and then to rest. Darius, on the other hand,
mindful of Alexander's unpredictable manoeuvres, ordered his army to stand to throughout the night in
readiness for a surprise attack. It is certain that the alertness of one side and the fatigue of the other
played at least some part in the outcome of the battle next day."
-Anthony Livesey,
Great Commanders and Their Battles
The last sentence of the passage hints of what outcome?
a. There is no battle.
C. Alexander wins the battle.
b. Darius wins the battle.
d. They fight, but neither side wins.

The correct answer is C. Alexander wins the battle

Explanation:

In this excerpt, the narrator explains there is a conflict between Alexander's troops and Dario's troops. Moreover, these leaders have different strategies, on one hand, Dario orders his troops to stay awake during the night "ordered his army to stand to throughout the night in readiness for a surprise attack", while Alexander decided his troops needed to rest. This implies next morning Alexander's troops will have all the energy for the battle and the alertness the author mentions in the last sentence "the alertness of one side and the fatigue of the other played at least some part in the outcome" will favor Alexander; therefore, this line suggests Alexander wins the battle.
