Read the excerpt from Does My Head Look Big in This? by Randa Abdel-Fattah. Because it’s pretty hard to walk around with people staring at your "towel-head” and not feel kind of pleased with yourself if you manage to get through the stares and comments with your head held high. That’s when this warm feeling buzzes through you and you smile to yourself, knowing God’s watching you, knowing that He knows you’re trying to be strong and please Him. Like you’re both in on a private joke and something special and warm and extraordinary is happening and nobody else in the world knows about it because it’s your own experience, your own personal friendship with your Creator. I guess when I’m not wearing the hijab I feel like I’m missing out. I feel cheated out of that special bond. Which phrases from the excerpt best support the narrator’s confident tone? Select three options.

..."That’s when this warm feeling buzzes through you and you smile to yourself,..."

..."something special and warm and extraordinary is happening and nobody else in the world knows about it..."

..."because it’s your own experience, your own personal friendship with your Creator. ..."

These three phrases from the excerpt support the narrator´s confident tone. They are example of despite going through a difficult situation due to the way people looked at her, she still managed to feel proud of her belief and what this represents for her, no matter what other people may think or say about it. She express the feelings that she experiments that for other people is simply difficult to understand.
