Read the short story. Noah spent three weeks working on his model of the Golden Gate Bridge. He designed it himself and built it completely out of toothpicks for the sixth-grade science fair. The purpose of Noah's project is to demonstrate how proper design is the key to the strength of a structure. Which conclusion would readers find most satisfying? An interested student decides to see how much weight Noah's bridge will hold. She places a pile of books on it, and it smashes to pieces. Noah wins a blue ribbon and gets his picture in the local newspaper. The headline reads, "Student's Model Holds Up to 'Pressure' of the Judges." Because he could not get away from the office, Noah's father is unable to deliver Noah's model to the school in time for judging. Noah's entry is marked as "Not Judged." Although the judges seem impressed with Noah's model, it does not earn a ribbon. Noah becomes very upset and regrets putting so much work into the science fair.
