Read the story. Answer the question that follows each paragraph.

When I was younger, I was very shy. I dreamed of becoming an actor, but I couldn’t imagine ever performing in front of others. My mother I always told me “Alma, dreams come true for people who make them come true.”

1. What is Alma’s problem?

For my tenth birthday, I decided to follow my mother’s advice. I asked my parents if I could enroll in acting lessons. My parents agreed and signed me up for lessons with Mrs. Parker, an acting coach in our community.

2. What does Alma do to solve her problem?

When my mother dropped me off at Mrs. Parker’s house, I was so terrifi ed I could hardly say hello. Mrs. Parker put me at ease, though. Before long, I forgot my shyness as I learned to put my heart and mind into different characters.

3. What happens at Mrs. Parker’s house?

I knew I had overcome my shyness once and for all when I gathered the courage to audition for the school play. I didn’t get the lead role, but I did get a supporting role. I plan to audition for more plays. If I keep working hard and practicing, maybe one day you’ll see me, Alma Sanchez, on the big screen.

4. How does the story end?

Now use your answers to help you write a brief summary.

When you summarize, you describe the characters, setting, and select the most important plot events, ideas, and details of a story or a text. These descriptions should be organized in your own words.
