Reading Practice A. Read the passage. Nora's Terrible Morning Nora, why are you so late? I had a terrible morning. I thought I was going to miss the exam. But I succeeded in getting here! What happened? First, I found a message from my mom stuck to my mirror telling me to take the bus to school. I don't usually mind taking the bus, but there was so much traffic this morning because of the rain. What else happened? There was no power, so I had to get ready in the dark. It took me fifteen minutes to find my house key and my glasses case! Is that why you are wearing two different socks? Oh, no! I look stupid! Don't be upset. No one will see them. They will be too busy looking at your unique hair!
