Passage 1

Jake walked home from school slowly. It had not been a good day. His science teacher embarrassed him in front of the class just because he couldn't remember the definition of "work." To make it worse, he got his math test back, and he completely failed it. Now he would have to stay after school two days a week for extra help.
A sudden sound made Jake stop in his tracks. What was that? Jake thought to himself. He spun around and saw a scrawny dog with matted fur following him. His big brown eyes seemed to be pleading with Jake. Jake stood still, looking at the dog.
