Answer:
Mr. Bueller shuffled through the papers on his desk. He smiled and hummed as he sat down to work.
Explanation:
Gary Sato's short story "Seventh Grade" is set in a school with the main protagonist Victor wanting to impress a girl named Teresa. In a typical story of a boy trying to impress a girl, Victor's emotional dilemma is something that resonates with all young people too.
Victor had pretended to know and be good in French just so that he can impress another student named Teresa and maybe even form a friendship/ relationship with her. So, while in the French class, he over-confidently responded to the teacher's questions. This made him seem like he is good in French. But in truth, he wasn't really knowledgeable about the language and that he had taken it just to be near her. So, when the teacher, Mr. Bueller knew the mistake, Victor was scared that he might tell everyone in the class and he'd be left embarrassed. But contrary to his thought, Mr. Bueller only <em>"shuffled through the papers on his desk. He smiled and hummed as he sat down to work."</em> <u>This shows the French language teacher ignoring the reality and instead acted in a supportive way for Victor, something that Victor didn't expect.
