READ THE FOLLOWING PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT FOLLOW:
 
Adrian wiped her sweating hands on her skirt and immediately checked to be sure she hadn’t
stained the shimmering fabric. Through the thick curtain she heard the audience murmuring.
Although she could not yet see them, her ears told her it must be a packed house. She’d dreamed
of this moment all her life, spent years training her body to move gracefully in rhythm with the
music. The final weeks leading up to tonight had been especially trying, and Adrian had the blisters
and calluses to prove it. They were carefully hidden, of course, under delicate satin slippers with
ribbons that encircled her ankles. The first notes of the opening number were hanging in the air as
Adrian quickly took her place center stage. She took a deep breath, as she’d been taught, and tried
to send all of the negative emotions out of her body as she slowly exhaled. The curtains parted.
