Since most people didn't pass the Lady, or the Tiger reading passage, we had to stay after school and reread the passage. I didn't know that the after-school studying turned out to become a competition between boys and girl. It was really interesting though I was quiet. I didn't make up hard questions because I thought that the teacher hoped that students could think about every question. Most of my questions began with Why or How., which were opinion questions. Girls dominated the competition with Kara's instructions. Thanks to Kara, girls won the competition easily. I liked to answer hard questions, but I didn't think those questions really helped us to fully understand the passage. Since those questions are made for defeating the opponents, they weren't that useful for helping students to understand the passage deeply. Anyways, it's a fantastic game in which we all enjoy it.
