Question 39 of 50 • FL-1001310-English 1 Sem 2 - Flex
Read the excerpt from "Wherefore Art Thou Romeo?”But I didn’t sleep. I thought about how utterly miserable it would feel to mess up on stage, plus get a vile grade in English class, plus watch Allison gloat. I got up before my alarm went off, arrived at school early, and slogged through the day like a sleepwalker. Finally the last bell chimed."Ready?” Shondra asked, when we were alone again in the spare classroom. We had two hours until we had to meet our teacher backstage.
