  1. Question 1
    Elena clutched her telescope and crept onto the rooftop. The city lights dimmed the stars, but she knew exactly where to look. At 9:47 PM, a streak of light raced across the sky — the comet her grandfather had told her about. What can you infer about Elena's grandfather?
    • He shared his knowledge of astronomy with Elena
    • He doesn't like stars
    • He has never seen a comet
    • He lives on the rooftop
  2. Question 2
    The letter had been folded and refolded so many times that the creases were soft as fabric. Marcus kept it in his front pocket, close to his chest, even though he'd memorized every word. What can you infer about how Marcus feels about the letter?
    • He wants to throw it away
    • It's extremely important and meaningful to him
    • He just received it today
    • He can't read it
  3. Question 3
    Priya practiced her free throws every morning before school and every evening after dinner. On the day of tryouts, she was the only one who made all ten shots. What detail from the text BEST supports the idea that hard work pays off?
