Billy was happy to teach Robbie to ride a horse. Billy was amazed that Robbie had never ridden before, but he thought that it would be rude to mention that. Robbie was worried as they walked to the barn. When he looked at the horse, what he saw was a huge, powerful animal. “How can I control something that big, when I’m used to living in a city and riding a bike?” he wondered. Then he asked Billy, “Will the horse run fast? What if the horse won’t move?” Billy didn’t understand why Robbie asked so many questions.

“A dare is a dare,” Ben heard his friend Tony say behind him as he walked up the creaking steps.
The October wind started blowing harder the closer Ben got to the front door. Old, grey wood covered in spider webs surrounded him.
There’s no way out this now, he thought. Why did I make up that story in the first place?
“Come on, man!” Tony called to Ben. “I don’t have all day!”
Ben glanced down at the rusted, metal door handle. He could see teeny bumps covering his skin like the chicken he sometimes saw his mom making for dinner.
He closed his eyes, grabbed the cold, metal handle, and pushed the door open.
If the passage were told from Tony’s point of view, the reader would probably learn

• why Ben lies to Tony about going inside the old house.
• what Ben tells his family about going in the old house.
• whether Tony and Ben’s parents are worried about them.
• what Tony does after Ben goes inside the old house.
