Question

Read the excerpt from Does My Head Look Big in This? by Randa Abdel-Fattah.

I froze. The priest would declare me a heretic, my parents would call me a traitor, and Mrs. Piogarni would give me detention. I had no idea what to say. I mean, what does a Muslim confess to a priest? I could only think of one thing. That every time Chris Barkley called me a darkie, or teased me about my mom's towel-head, I made a silent prayer asking God to drop a tree on his stupid head.

The priest asked me again: "What is your confession, my child?"

"I’m Muslim," I whispered.

"Five Hail Marys and five of the Lord’s Prayer.”

That was my first and last participation in a church service.

Answer 2

A

Step-by-step explanation:

In the story, the narrator states "I had no idea what to say. I mean, what does a Muslim confess to a priest?".

Additionally, the narrator states "I froze". The narrator worries about what other people will think about them. They think that their parents will call them a traitor, or their teacher will give them a detention.

The narrator is scared and worried, because they are confessing they are Muslim to a Catholic priest. They are frightened about the outcomes of this action.

She is not confused, and the story does not mention the Lord's Prayer. She is terrified, but not from shame from her thoughts. She is also not annoyed.

Therefore, the best choice is A: The narrator is frightened because she is a Muslim making a Catholic confession.
