Read the excerpt from 'The Secret of Oakhaven Ridge': 'Maya ran her fingers across the worn brass edges of the antique compass she found in her grandfather's attic. Although the needle flickered uncertainly at first, it soon spun steadily toward the north. A folded, yellowed map tucked underneath the velvet lining showed a forgotten trail leading to the old mill.' Which detail from the excerpt best supports the inference that the compass was still functional despite its age?

The needle flickered at first but then pointed steadily toward the north. The compass had worn brass edges from being stored in the attic. Maya found the compass inside a box lined with velvet fabric. A yellowed map was tucked carefully underneath the compass lining.

Correct Answer:

The needle flickered at first but then pointed steadily toward the north.
