  1. AAnkit's parents want him to play the guitar
  2. BAnkit prefers music to outdoor activities
  3. CAnkit goes to some type of camp every summer
  4. DAnkit likes to sing and dance.Correct

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the passage explicitly states that Ankit is looking forward to the music camp where he hopes to sing and dance. This direct statement confirms his interest or liking for these activities. Option A is incorrect because there is no mention of his parents' wishes. Option B is incorrect because participating in different camps does not prove a preference of one over the other. Option C is incorrect because the information only covers two specific summers, which is not enough to conclude that he goes to a camp every single summer. Therefore, D is the only conclusion that logically follows from the given text.
Logical Reasoning: During the last summer vacation. Ankit went to a summer camp where he took part in hiking swimming and boating. This sum
