Darrell was not so certain about his own future. The days ahead stretched out before him like a dark road filled with dangerous shadows. It would be like the summer Mom sent him to a camp for inner-city kids. The camp director promised Darrell and his mother that he would experience adventures in the outdoors away from the dangers of the city. What Darrell ended up experiencing was torment from a kid who wanted nothing more than to make anyone weaker than him feel as miserable as possible.


The main idea of the above excerpt is that...

Darrell’s bad memories of camp make him think things wouldn’t be fine.

one summer, Darrell’s mother sent him to a camp outdoors for city kids.

the camp director’s promises did not come true.
