  • B. Mr. Sanchez does not like classical music.
  • C. Mrs. Sanchez cooks the vegetables that Mr. Sanchez grows.
  • D. Mrs. Sanchez enjoys reading nineteenth century novels.

  • Correct Answer
  • Mr. Sanchez enjoys planting and growing vegetables. 

    Explanation
    Because Mr. Sanchez spends many hours during the weekend working in his vegetable garden, it is reasonable to suggest that he enjoys this work.

Mrs. Sanchez likes to read, but there is no information regarding the types of books she reads (choice d).
