	De acordo com o texto, assinale a alternativa que indica a razão do funeral de Jim Davis ter sido diferente dos outros: FAKE FUNERAL SCAM It was quite a send-off for Jim Davis, or so the people paying his funeral bills were led to believe. They were told Davis was laid to rest at Abbey Memorial Park in Compton after being placed in an ornate, top-of-the-line casket lined with elaborate floral arrangements. Altogether, the bill to bury Davis at the palm-lined cemetery came to nearly $31,000. But there was a problem: There was no Jim Davis. He was dreamed up by a group of scam artists, authorities say. And prosecutors say the coffin that was lowered into the ground was made out of cheap plywood or cardboard, filled with either rocks or animal bones, apparently to convince those who handled it that there was a body inside.
		
	
	e. Jim was buried naked
	
	b. It cost nearly $31,000
	
	d. He was buried alive
