A New Student at Grover High by Moll Flowers At my last school, I'd seen new students come and go. Other students were always picking on the new kids. New kids didn't have friends yet, so there was no one to stick up for them. Eventually they would learn to keep to themselves and lay low. I never guessed that I would end up being a new student myself. But here I was, in a new town where no one knew anything about me. It was my first day of school at Grover High, and I wanted nothing more than to simply fade into the background. I didn't want to make a fool of myself. My attempt at being invisible didn't work, however. Kids kept coming up to me and introducing themselves. When people looked up at me with grins on their faces, I figured I had food stuck in my teeth, or maybe there was something wrong with my clothes. But no one laughed. Mainly, they were just curious about where I was from, and what life had been like at my previous school. The kids were oddly well behaved. I wondered if the school building itself might have something to do with it. Whereas my last school had been overcrowded, making it difficult to be on time for class, here the hallways were roomy. There were no more than 15 or 20 kids in each class. I noticed they had new facilities, too. At the end of my first day, my art teacher did something that I normally wouldn't have liked. She took my drawing of a mountain landscape and held it up in front of the class. She said it was a good example of three-dimensional perspective. I looked around and noticed that the other kids were actually impressed. They nodded at me respectfully and then returned to their drawings. I couldn't believe it. At that moment, a sense of calm came over me. I realized that Grover High was going to be unlike anything I'd ever experienced before. 10 How would the story have been different if it had taken place at the narrator's previous school? A. The narrator would have advised new students to introduce themselves to other students. B. The narrator would not have agreed to enroll in a drawing class at her previous school. C. The students would have reacted differently to the narrator's drawing of a mountain landscape. D. The hallways and classrooms would have been spacious and equipped with newer computer models.
Well some answer choices u would cross off off the bat would be "D. The hallways and classrooms would have been spacious and equipped with newer computer models." bc in the passage it says "Whereas my last school had been overcrowded, making it difficult to be on time for class, here the hallways were roomy. There were no more than 15 or 20 kids in each class. I noticed they had new facilities, too." and that is stating that at her old school there was very little room in the class room and halways due to there being a high amount of students at the school.
Another answer choice u would cross off is A "The narrator would have advised new students to introduce themselves to other students." bc in the passage it says "Kids kept coming up to me and introducing themselves. When people looked up at me with grins on their faces, I figured I had food stuck in my teeth, or maybe there was something wrong with my clothes. But no one laughed. Mainly, they were just curious about where I was from, and what life had been like at my previous school." this is stating that at her other school they didnt introduce them self and made fun of the new kids
So that leaves answer choices B and C
In your best opinion what answer choice do u think would be correct?
hmmm
C?
correct
oh
thanks
C would be correct bc in the passage it says "She said it was a good example of three-dimensional perspective. I looked around and noticed that the other kids were actually impressed. They nodded at me respectfully and then returned to their drawings. I couldn't believe it. At that moment, a sense of calm came over me. I realized that Grover High was going to be unlike anything I'd ever experienced before." which is stating that at the students old school she never was noticed for her good drawings
