Please turn over for questions on mathematics and sciences.
I decided to hand in the test as it was.the answers i gave were incredibly idiotic,but i couldnt care less.the woman stared at me for a full minute,and seeing that she had nothing to say to me,I turned and walked in the direction of the setting sun,my shadow long and outstretched before me,pointing my way back home.
I always tried to lie to myself that it was a home,but nothing could steer me from the fact that it wasnt,and it would never be.I had no close friends,nothing that I would miss should I leave the place.
But still,an orphanage was a roof over my head.life in there,no matter how boring,how lame,how torturous it was,was still by far much better than life on the streets.
Come to think of it,that woman hadnt told me why i was the only one taking the test,or why she'd come all the way to the school just to find me.And what was the point of this questioning thing?
I shrugged to myself,letting the last rays of sunlight rub off on my face as the chain on my wrist clanged and tinkled lightly against my hand as I swung my arms.Someone would tell me soon enough.
The gates swung open as I ignored the security guard and the curious gazes of the passers-by as they watched me enter the tall,white building,labelled blatantly as a Home for Orphans. As I made my way across the gardens towards my block,I twisted my face into a mask of passive iciness,and as expected,I passed unnoticed.
