As the rain comes down, Anna sits on the sofa with her arms folded and tears streaming down her face. Beside her is a new tennis racket that Anna was hoping to use at tennis camp today. Anna had been looking forward to her first day at tennis camp for weeks. However, instead of going to the camp and having fun while playing tennis, Anna must spend the day watching the pouring rain.
Why is Anna crying?

A) Anna wants to watch her favorite television show.
B) Anna is afraid of playing tennis badly.
C) The new tennis racket is not her favorite color.
D) The rain is keeping Anna from going to tennis camp.

Answer 1

D.) the rain is keeping Anna from going to tennis camp.

This is the answer because in the text she is upset about having to watch the rain. This is a context clue.

Answer 2

D— using details from the text, we can infer that Anna is crying because she can’t go to tennis camp because of the rain. None of the other options are logical given the context.
