Question

starting a new school year is something i have always been reluctant to do, but i dread it for a strange reason. im not scared of my teachers. im not fretting over what shoes im going to wear. i dont hate math or social studies. no, nothing like that. most of my friends dread going back to school for the usual reasons: because it means the end of summer, because they simply do not like school. me, i actually like school. i just hate having to learn a new schedule!

my perfect schedule

in an ideal world, each school year would be structured the exact same way as last years. i would always have math first period, english second, and social studies third. then i would have lunch before starting on biology, art, and ending the day with gym.

i can live with the fact that we have to study different subjects each year. after all, there is no point in relearning the same concepts

each of the following is true of the narrator’s preferred schedule except
a it was easy for the narrator to learn it and memorize it.
b it was not part of a block schedule
c it had three classes before lunch and three after lunch.
d it was the schedule the narrator had the previous school year

Explanation:

• For option A: The text says the narrator hates learning a new schedule, implying the old (preferred) schedule was easy to learn/memorize. So A is true.
• For option B: The text doesn't mention block schedules at all, so we can't confirm if the preferred schedule was not part of a block schedule. This makes B not necessarily true.
• For option C: The preferred schedule has math (1st), English (2nd), social studies (3rd) before lunch, then biology, art, gym after lunch—3 before, 3 after. So C is true.
• For option D: The narrator says "each school year would be structured the exact same way as last year" for the ideal (preferred) schedule, so it's the previous year's schedule. D is true.

Answer:

B. It was not part of a block schedule
