Select the correct text in the passage. Read this excerpt from an autobiography. Which sentence implies that the author is excited about wearing her cheerleading uniform?
There was an extra spring in my step as I walked to school sporting my newly pressed cheerleading uniform. I could hear snickers coming from a few boys from the soccer team.
“What a shame!” called the captain, Scotty. “The flag is missing from the flag pole today.” He looked over at me. With my blue uniform, white pom-poms, and fiery red hair, Scotty concluded that I would be the perfect replacement. The joke was on them, though. They forgot about my three older brothers who played football.
