Question

Read the excerpt from a contemporary story. Lara was one of the brightest computer programmers her professor had ever seen. She shared her gifts by tutoring other students, many of whom were much older. It was a common sight to see her staying late in the library, huddled over her trusted, beat-up laptop, helping someone. So when she retreated with her laptop to her room and refused to leave, it created a wave of discontent at the school.
