Read this excerpt from We Beat the Street. "If you're looking for the Seton Hall presentation, it's just beginning," the principal told them. She walked with the three boys to the library, then stood by the door, listening to the presentation herself for a few minutes. We're stuck, Sampson thought as the three of them found seats at a back table. How do the boys’ attitudes before the presentation compare to their attitudes after it?

They do not recognize that they are being given a great opportunity before the presentation, but afterward they do.

"We Beat the Street" is an autobiography written by Sampson Davis, George Jenkins, Rameck Hunt and Sharon Draper which was published in 2005.

When comparing the boy's attitudes before and after the presentation, it is evident that the boys do not recognize that they are being given a great opportunity before the presentation, but afterwards they do.
