ed the fifty-yard dash. . . . I get up and slip off my sweatpants and then I see Gretchen standing at the starting line, kicking her legs out like a pro. Then as I get into place I see that ole Raymond is on line on the other side of the fence, bending down with his fingers on the ground just like he knew what he was doing.

The correct option is option letter B (A serious athlete makes a total commitment to competing). The short story “<em>Raymond's Run</em>” by Toni Cade Bambara (1990) narrates the story of Hazel Parker (Squeaky) and how she decides to coach her brother Raymond, who has a mental disability, putting her own running career off to coach Raymond. The excerpt from this short story presented above narrates how Squeaky fully <u>commits to her competition</u> noticing everything, but <em>taking care of his energy</em>. For instance, she prefers not to holler at her brother who is alongside the track so as <u>not to waste energy</u> before her competition. This clearly describe how professional and serious she is about competing.

Write a short story in 200 – 250 words, with the help of the clues given below. Give a suitable title to the story. It was Mohin
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Short story on Mohini, a new girl in school.

Explanation:

NEVER JUDGE A PERSON OUTWARDLY.

It was Mohini’s first day at the new school. Feeling so nervous, she stood in a corner and watched the students who were laughing and talking excitedly. When she saw four senior students advancing towards her, she was reminded of the girl groups she had seen in movies, the ones who act all so chic and proud, bullying those they deem inferior. This realization made her even more nervous and so, she tried to hide as much as she could.  

When the quartet arrived at her location, she refused to not make any eye contact with them. But as expected, they immediately noticed her and approached her, eyeing her from top to bottom and then up again. When she was asked to introduce herself, she felt so nervous she couldn't even speak properly. Her whole body was tensed, and she didn't even realize that a small circle had formed around her, with students who seem to be waiting for a major showdown.

But the 'leader' of the quartet opened her mouth and began talking in a calm manner which surprised Mohini. She hadn't expected that. The girls introduced themselves as the school's representatives for bullying. That shocked her, the irony! She had expected them to do the act of bullying while in reality, they are fighting against the atrocious act. From that day on, Mohini realized it is never a good thing to judge someone based on outside appearance.
