READ

Female: I left my Science project at home! It is due today.
Male: Oh, no! What happened?
Female: I woke up late because I stayed up until midnight to finish that project. I had to rush to school to be on time for my first class. I only realized that I left my project after my first class.
Male: That’s a big problem. What are you planning to do?
Female: Yeah. I really don’t know what to do.
Male: You can try to create a new project during your break time. Just make one that looks like the one you made last night.
Female: It took me a lot of time to finish that project. Our break is only for an hour. My time is very limited.
Male: Why don’t you ask our Science teacher for a deadline extension. Tell her what happened and that you can submit it tomorrow morning. I’m sure she’ll understand.
Female: Our Science teacher is very strict when it comes to deadlines. I’m afraid she might not allow me to submit my project later than the due date. If ever she does, she might deduct some points on my grade. I don’t want to fail in Science.

SAMPLE ANSWER 5

Which do you think is the best solution?

I choose the second solution because it offers a permanent solution to the problem. She might not be able to finish her project if she will start over because her break time is only for an hour. Asking for a deadline extension for the project submission has more assurance that she will have a good grade for her Science project.
