Question

Read the excerpt from "Raymond's Run." Every time, just before I take off in a race, I always feel like I’m in a dream, the kind of dream you have when you’re sick with fever and feel all hot and weightless. I dream I’m flying over a sandy beach in the early morning sun, kissing the leaves of the trees as I fly by. And there’s always the smell of apples, just like in the country when I was little and used to think I was a choo-choo train, running through the fields of corn and chugging up the hill to the orchard. And all the time I’m dreaming this, I get lighter and lighter until I’m flying over the beach again, getting blown through the sky like a feather that weighs nothing at all. How does the setting in the excerpt of "Raymond's Run" affect Squeaky? By imagining she is in a dream, Squeaky is able to calm her nerves before it is time for her to run. By visualizing she is in different places, Squeaky finds the motivation to run at her very best. By pretending that she is running on the beach, Squeaky gains the confidence she is lacking. By thinking back on memories of the country, Squeaky is able to forget she is in a place she does not want to be.
