READING ASSESSMENT
1. | Read the story and choose the correct answer! |
There’s a friend I’ve known since I was a child. I was at his house when he got this absolutely horrible stomach ache when he was six. His whole body writhed in pain. He was in so much pain that his mom took him to the doctor, who looked at him and told her to take him straight to the ER. Her biggest concern was an intestinal rupture. As we were driving to the hospital, he unleashed the loudest, most powerful fart I have ever heard. I thought the seat upholstery had ripped. “I’m feeling better now! I feel all better now!” he said to his mom after about 30 seconds of intense farting. What is the story about? |
