Rochelle slammed her laptop shut, pumped her fists up to the sky, and shouted, “Yes! I did it!

3. Use the dialogue to answer the question.

Luisa ran through the back door of the coffee shop where she worked every Saturday. She shoved her purse in her locker and tied her apron around her waist.

“I hate being late,” she muttered. Her face was red from the brisk 10-minute walk from her house to work.

“Late?” replied Anthony. “It’s 10:59. Your shift doesn't start until 11. You are actually right on time!" he said in his friendly voice.

“If I'm not five minutes early, I am late," said Luisa matter-of-factly. Before Anthony could say another word, Luisa was off serving coffee for customers.

4. Use the passage to answer the question.

Gabriella’s favorite day of the week was Sunday because she had nowhere to be and nothing to do. She would usually wake up and head outside to the porch, sometimes with a book in her hand, sometimes not. Every now and then a car would crawl by or the wind would blow a delicate breeze to remind her that she was not floating on a cloud; she was on her grandparents’ porch lying in a hammock, arms above her head, lost in a daydream. Eventually, she would head in for a cup of tea with her grandmother, and then she would stroll into town and pick up some fresh vegetables to cook for dinner.
