What might have happened if Elena's brothers would have let her play in the beginning?
  • She would have learned to play baseball from her brothers.
  • She would have quit when they made fun of her.
Reread the paragraph. Which sentence from the paragraph best supports the idea that Elena is discouraged?For weeks Elena’s brothers had been promising to teach herhow to play baseball. Today, though, when she pestered them tojoin a game, Jorge said sure. “Come on you can pitch!” he exclaimed.Elena excitedly grabbed the ball and headed to the mound. She wound up her arm and threw the ball as fast as she could. The ball flew towards home plate and missed Jorge's head by a pin head. "Hey!" he screamed at her, "Are you trying to take my head off?" Elena dropped her head and walked off the field. Maybe I never should have tried to play baseball after all she thought to herself.
