Module 8, Week 2 Assessment Review

That evening, Miguel helped his dad unpack his suitcase, but when Miguel started to empty the shaving kit, his father stopped him. “Miguel, please return that to my suitcase; I’m leaving on another trip tomorrow morning.”

“But, Dad, you just arrived,” Miguel protested.

Then staring silently at the suitcase, Miguel remembered how as a younger boy, he had curled up inside the suitcase, hoping his dad would take him along. Sometimes his dad traveled so far that it was daytime where he was while it was nighttime for Miguel, and then Miguel and his dad couldn’t even share a phone call.

When does the flashback occur in the story?

• when Miguel greets Dad at the airport

• when Dad tells Miguel he is leaving on another trip

• when Miguel thanks Dad for the new chess set

• when Dad sends a phone message to Miguel
