Marge was furious beyond explanation. Never had she dreamed of being in such a desperate situation.
“I should blame myself!” she said.
Her car stopped working in the middle of nowhere, and her cell phone was completely out of charge. She could not believe her luck. For days, she kept postponing the repairs that were pending on her car.
“If only I had the sense to be more organized!” she mumbled.
As Marge looked around, a sudden sense of fear began creeping in. The road was dark, except for the headlights from her car illuminating a small circumference around her. Sitting in her car was not an option because nobody would stop to help her, and standing on the road made her sick with fear. Marge thought about locking her car and walking until she found help. As the darkness frightened her, she decided to sit it out in the car.
6. How would Marge react if the setting was a busy street?
She would lock the car and walk home.
She would try to fix the car herself.
