The above statement is TRUE .
Step-by-step explanation of the answer:
To answer this question, we need to read the third paragraph of the extract carefully. 📜
It says that Sophie arrives at the Royce’s at six o’clock and waits for Danny Casey to show up . She looks around for him, but she does not see him anywhere. She thinks that maybe he is late or stuck in traffic. She waits for half an hour, then an hour, then two hours. She starts to feel cold and hungry. She wonders if he has forgotten about her or changed his mind. She feels disappointed and foolish. 😢
This means that Sophie experiences some physical and emotional sensations while waiting for Danny Casey at the Royce’s. What are they? 🤔
We can write them in one sentence using our own words. 🖊️
- The physical sensations that Sophie feels are coldness and hunger . She feels cold because it is evening and she is wearing a thin dress. She feels hungry because she has not eaten anything since morning and she has been waiting for too long. ❄️🍽️
- The emotional sensations that Sophie feels are disappointment and foolishness . She feels disappointed because she had high hopes for her date with Danny Casey, but he does not show up. She feels foolish because she realizes that she has been living in a fantasy world, and that Danny Casey does not even know her name. 😞😳
Therefore, the statement is TRUE . Sophie feels cold and hungry while waiting for Danny Casey at the Royce’s. This is how she shows her frustration and sadness for being stood up by him. 🎉
