Question

Read the following nonfiction narrative and answer the questions below. Drip, Drip 1986 It happened in math class. 7th grade math was definitely NOT my favorite class. I had Mrs. Fifer, and she was the quintessential math teacher – hair in a bun, glasses on a chain that she wore low on her nose. I was terrified of her. I was wearing white pants that day. I loved those white pants; they had loops on the side like carpenter jeans, extra pockets and pleats. Yes, I knew you weren’t supposed to wear white pants after Labor Day, but I was a rebel. We were taking a test, and that meant we weren’t allowed to leave our desks. This was a hard and fast rule, and there was no way I was going to break it; however, as I was taking my test, I noticed my nose was running a lot. I was constantly sniffing. Then, a drop of blood fell on my test. “Oh no,” I thought to myself. “I’m having one of my nosebleeds.” My nosebleeds were legendary in my house. They were not your average nosebleed; mine were like someone turned the faucet on high and walked away. I put my left hand over my nose with the hopes that I could contain it until after math. Christa, who sat in the desk across from me, looked at me with a, “What is happening to you?” expression on her face. I just looked down and tried to continue my test, but my nose was having none of that. Apparently, covering my nose with my hand was like putting a stopper on a garden hose; there’s only so much pressure it can take before the water busts through. I think you get the idea. My white pants and test looked like a crime scene. Needless to say, Mrs. Fifer sent me to the office and wondered why I had waited so long. I looked at her, with her severe bun and low-hanging glasses, mumbled something and took off to the office. 7th grade math continued to be my least favorite class.
