Q3 Review Ana left home at 9 in the morning in her old light blue car. She passed the Mexican restaurant and remembered about her experience from yesterday at the restaurant. Okay, I remember that After 30 minutes by car, Ana arrives at school. Ana believes that the university is far from her home and it takes a long time to get to school. She gets out of her car and walks towards the building where she thought her Spanish class should be. While she's walking, Ana hears music. The music that Ana hears has a Latin rhythm. Good, I like Latin music too. Fantastic! The sound of the music is very peculiar. The music is from a guitar but it's not a normal guitar. It's a special guitar. Ana listens to the music but doesn't know who is playing the special guitar because she doesn't see anyone with a guitar. Poor Ana While Ana listened to the sound of the music, she remembered that she had her Spanish class and realized she didn't have her blue backpack. Oh no, Ana had another problem Yes, there was a problem. While Ana was listening to the sound of the music, she remembered that she had her Spanish class and realized she didn't have her backpack. Everything was still in her car. Poor Ana She thinks it's important to be prepared and she decides to return to her car to look for her things. She returns to her car and finds her backpack in her car with the materials. When Ana arrives at the car, she changes her mind. She decides that her blue backpack is very large and doesn't want to carry it. I understand Instead of carrying her blue backpack, Ana decides to put her materials in her pink purse and leave the backpack in the car. She takes the pink purse from her car and carries it to class. Great! While she walks back to the building of the Spanish class, Ana tries to listen for the music again. This time, Ana can't hear anything. There isn't the sound of the peculiar guitar playing the Latin rhythm. Ana decides to continue walking and look for her Spanish class. I remember that also Very Good She thought that the Spanish class was in the same building where it was before. She sees a door with the number 222. She thought it was the right class. A child comes out of the door and is talking on the phone.
