Option C is most probable answer because it he went in summer camp the previous n he's planning to go this year too. Then itss clear that Option C is the right answer.

Hi All,
Option D is correct. ('Mike likes to sing and dance').
Why Option C is not suitable answer?
Explanation:
1. Last summer Mike spent at a summer camp.
2. This summer, Mike looks forward to attending a two-week music camp.
We cannot conclude that 'Mike goes to some type of camp every summer'.
Because there is no strong information to support it. He might not have gone for any summer camp previously(previous to the last summer). He may not go for any camp in the next summer.
The conclusion should not be questionable.
Hope you understand. Have a nice day!

Mike is looking forward for the current summer camp.
This means that plans something for every summer.
I think option C is better.

Ya me too think option C is more appropriate. Sundar's explanation is not so convincing. Anybody please clarify.
