Bungawitta Chapters 5-6
Read the original passage below, then answer each question using evidence from the passage. This activity is self-contained and does not require the novel.
The people of Bungawitta had spent weeks getting ready for the festival. If the ABC crew made a report about their town, they hoped more visitors might come. So when the crew was late, everyone kept glancing towards the road.
Socko had been given the job of coordinating what would happen at the festival. He checked the schedule, shifted a stack of chairs and tried to keep the younger helpers cheerful. Glory-Alice had a different problem: the welcome display was unfinished. She asked a person she trusted to help, because that person knew how to make the display look just right.
Aunty Flo was meant to start the line dance, but she had to deal with another festival task. She asked Greasy to lead the first steps instead. Greasy looked surprised, then agreed. Around them, people carried food, straightened bunting and made room for the dancers.
Jay went to Maisie Macduff's house to check on something. From inside, he heard a sharp cry. For a moment he wondered if an animal was in trouble. Then he heard another sound and realised he needed to investigate before deciding what it was.
At last, news came that the ABC crew had been delayed again. The villagers were frustrated, but they did not pack up. They kept the festival going while they waited. Glory-Alice had made a bold choice to help the town's plan succeed, even though it might surprise the others.
When Jay found the weatherman, he did not let him leave immediately. Jay wanted to sort out the situation and make sure the festival could continue. The delay had already caused enough confusion. Around the town, people were doing their best to help one another, even when their plans changed.
