Read the passage about a track meet. Tessie crouched down in the starting position. When she heard the crack of the starter’s pistol, she lunged forward and began to run. Tessie’s best friends, Ava and Maria, were running beside her for a while, but Tessie soon pulled away. Tessie knew they wouldn’t mind because they didn’t care about track or winning as much as Tessie did. The runner she really had to worry about was a girl named Sonia on another team. Tessie felt her legs begin to ache, but she pushed her body forward, faster. Then Tessie couldn’t see anything anymore but the finish line. As she burst across the finish line, she heard her teammates let out a roar. She looked at the clock. Not only had she won the event, she had set a new school record!

How to prevent onions from making you cry chill the onions in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before peeling or chopping them. sulfuric vapors move slower in the cold—think about how garbage smells worse during hot weather. leave the onion root intact until the last possible moment to prevent irritants from escaping into the air. the root contains the largest concentration of sulfuric compounds in an onion. chop or cut the onion with a sharp knife. fast, clean slicing puts less pressure on the onion tissue and minimizes the release of sulfuric compounds. a sharp knife also allows you to expedite your slicing and reduce your exposure to the onion fumes. open a window or light a scented candle close to your chopping station. the hot flame of a candle will attract tear-causing vapor and will reduce the amount of vapor circulating in the air. what can be done to these instructions to make them easier to read at a glance? deleting everything except the first sentences of each numbered step eliminating the numbers and using bullets using illustrations instead of text changing nothing
