I tried to tell him, but my older brother does not believe anything I say. For almost two weeks he was fascinated by a skateboar
ding video game and the unbelievable tricks mastered by his avatar. He thought real skateboarding would be a snap. When the package came, he ripped it open and lifted out his own specially designed maple wood skateboard. Out the door he flew, dropping the skateboard at the edge of our driveway and stepping on the skateboard's deck. Which sentence provides the BEST conclusion for this narrative paragraph?
A) Splat! Down went my big brother and his big ideas that real skateboarding would be easy.
B) "Watch this!" he shouted as he rolled away. I didn't see him again for almost two hours.
C) "Jump on!" invited my brother before he nudged the front board, making it spin 180 degrees.
D) Wow! He put one foot on the tail and one just behind the front bolts, mastering the board in minutes.
The sibling tries to warn their brother that skateboarding isn't as easy as it is in the video games, but the brother doesnt listen. It would make sense (to me) that the conclusion would be A.
