Explanation:

- The passage describes the role of a scout during a war. A scout is tasked with moving ahead of the army to locate the enemy.

- The sentence with the blank states "He then...back to the commander all the..." which requires a verb that means to convey or relay information.

- Option 1: reports - This means to give an account of something, usually to someone in authority.

- Option 2: carries - This usually refers to physically transporting something, which doesn't fit well with conveying information.

- Option 3: sends - This generally involves dispatching something to someone else, but doesn't directly imply conveying gathered information.

- Option 4: tells - While this can mean to convey something verbally, "reports" is more appropriate in a military context where formal relaying of information is involved.
