## Step 1The first step in solving this problem is to understand the context of the excerpt. The excerpt describes the harsh living conditions in Oymyakon, a place with extremely cold temperatures and limited daylight hours.## Step 2Next, we need to analyze each of the given options in light of the information provided in the excerpt.### Option AThis option suggests that people adapt their lives to deal with the cold temperatures. This is supported by the excerpt, which mentions that people stay inside and watch TV, and that they don't use their fridges in winter.### Option BThis option suggests that there are only four hours of daylight to allow people to sleep longer. While the excerpt does mention that there are only four hours of daylight, it doesn't imply that this is to allow people to sleep longer.### Option CThis option suggests that people must stay in their homes and not go out due to the cold temperatures. While the excerpt does mention that people stay inside, it doesn't imply that they are not allowed to go out.### Option DThis option suggests that Oymyakon is too far away from any other civilization for people to live. The excerpt does not provide any information to support this claim.## Step 3Based on the analysis, option A is the most accurate summary of the information in the excerpt.
