Read the excerpt from "Bone Detective," by Lorraine Jean Hopping. Next Diane borrowed Mary’s cat, Whites, for a dress rehearsal of the big event. Mary told Diane that cats vent body heat through the tongue. To avoid overheating the animal, she recommended using cold water—and working quickly.

When Mary tranquilized her cat for its regular teeth cleaning, Diane made an impression of the little pink tongue.

She had to work around an oxygen tube in the cat’s mouth. But, once again, she was able to produce an amazingly detailed impression. It included all the spines that made the cat’s tongue so rough. Cats need the stiff bristles—called filiform papillae—to clean their fur. Diane wondered what the tiger tongue would feel like—a scrub brush?

Based on this excerpt, what is the author’s opinion about the quality of Diane’s work?

A. The author admires Diane’s high-quality impressions and castings.

B. The author feels that Diane’s castings are too rough and bristly.

C. The author insists that Diane’s cat study deserves an award.

D. The author questions the accuracy of Diane’s dress rehearsal on a cat.
