Explanation:
Briggs' story presents Anna and Tali, two students that have to develop a science project about beetles. The problem is that Anna is scared of beetles, contrary to Tali who has a great interest in them. Tali helps Anna learn about beetles and gets her to overcome her aversion to the insect, which is shown by Anna touching a live beetle. At the same time, Tali, who is afraid of public speaking, also overcomes her fear with the help of her classmate, showing that their complementary skills were a great match to work together.
