At the New Year's party, who did Jo talk with most of the night?

The Laurence family had

• eight children.

Jo was happy to go to Laurie's house because

• she was going to babysit.
• she had never been in a house so big and grand.
• she wanted to get away from her home.
• the Laurences were having a party.

When Jo came face-to-face with Mr. Laurence,

• she ran and hid.
• she started to cry.
• she was no longer afraid of him.
• she knew she hated him even more than ever.

Mr. Laurence thanked Jo for

• the party.

• coming to see Laurie.

Laurie was happy that Jo came to see him because

• he didn't have many friends.
• she was pretty.

• she gave back dishes from breakfast.

Mr. Laurence told Jo

• never to come back.
• that her mother and sisters could come over any day.

From that day on,

• the Marches and the Laurences were good friends.
• Jo never spoke to Laurie again.
• Jo never spoke to Laurie's grandfather again.
• Jo lived with the Laurence family.
