Making Inferences and Drawing Conclusions Read the following passage and then make an inference.

Maria was on the flag squad that performed at half time during football games. It was the first game that her grandparents and uncle Luigi attended. Maria waved her flag while looking for her family in the large crowd. Just as she spotted her grandmother, her greatest fear came true. She lost her grip on the flag, and it started to fall. Even though she caught it quickly, Maria’s face became red. She felt as if she had made a horrible mistake and everyone were staring at her.

___________________________________________________________________

The passage suggests that Maria almost dropped her flag partly

because she –

A was thinking about the football game

B wasn’t strong enough

C was looking for her family
