It wad the sea eagle that called Emily down to the beach. It hovered about the waves, its broad wings dusty where the land had left its mark, its small eyes that could follow the horizon bright and keen. She had not meant to come down onto the beach. She had mean to sit at the top of the ramp till the other kids had left the street, till she could walk home from school in peace without strangers staring at her, but somehow the bird seemed to urge her to come down. Cite the textual evidence that best describes Emily's thoughts and feelings.

• "...till she could walk home from school in peace..."

• "...sea eagle that called Emily..."

• "...its broad wings dusty..."

• "...the bird seemed to urge her to come down."
