The diary of a young girl
by anne frank (excerpt)

sunday, june 14, 1942

i'll begin from the moment i got you, the moment i saw you lying on the table among my other birthday presents. (i went along when you were bought, but that doesn't count.)

on friday, june 12, i was awake at six o'clock, which isn't surprising, since it was my birthday. but i'm not allowed to get up at that hour, so i had to control my curiosity until quarter to seven. when i couldn't wait any longer, i went to the dining room, where moortje (the cat) welcomed me by rubbing against my legs. a little after seven i went to daddy and mama and then to the living room to open my presents, and you were the first thing i saw, maybe one of my nicest presents. then a bouquet of roses, some peonies and a potted plant. from daddy and mama i got a blue blouse, a game, a bottle of grape juice, which to my mind tastes a bit like wine (after all, wine is made from grapes), a puzzle, a jar of cold cream, 2.50 guilders and a gift certificate for two books. i got another book as well, camera obscura (but margot already has it, so i exchanged mine for something else), a platter of homemade cookies (which i made myself, of course, since i've become quite an expert at baking cookies), lots of candy and a strawberry tart from mother. and a letter from grammy, right on time, but of course that was just a coincidence.

then hanneli came to pick me up, and we went to school. during recess i passed out cookies to my teachers and my class, and then it was time to get back to work. i didn't arrive home until five, since i went to gym with the rest of the class. (i'm not allowed to take part because my shoulders and hips tend to get dislocated.) as it was my birthday, i got to decide which game my classmates would play, and i chose volleyball. afterward they all danced around me in a circle and sang "happy birthday." when i got home, sanne ledermann was already there. ilse wagner, hanneli goslar and jacqueline van maarsen came home with me after gym, since we're in the same class.

1if katina that the first day of her internship at harper and associates would be so disastrous, she would have called in sick. she'd chosen her clothes carefully that morning: katina had dressed in black slacks, a white shirt, a vibrant turquoise jacket, and matching turquoise shoes to create a youthful but professional look. on the bus ride to work, someone had bumped katina's arm, and she'd spilled her coffee down the front of her shirt. unfortunately, the jacket couldn't hide the stain, and katina knew that the senior partners had noticed it when they'd introduced themselves. 2 one of the third-year associates, greg, had shown katina around the office and explained her responsibilities. then, he'd taken her to the copy room, handed her an enormous box of legal briefs, and told her to start making copies. just when she'd almost finished, greg had returned to tell her that he actually needed two copies of every file. after lunch, greg had katina start filing the copies. she'd been filing for an hour when greg informed her that she'd put the files in the incorrect order. katina could only hope that tomorrow would be a better day. how does the author reveal katina's initial excitement about her internship? a) by showing how katina responds to conflict b) by describing how katina felt at the end of the day c) by showing how katina interacts with other characters d) by describing how katina selected her clothes with care
