His notebook and textbook were in a cinch sack on his back, and he wore headphones to listen to music on the way. What Gino did not know was that his friends had decided to have a small party to celebrate his upcoming birthday. They arrived before him and anxiously waited with a cake and cards. Meanwhile, Gino rounded the last turn, nodding his head in time with the music while thinking about Spanish vocabulary.
Answer

Gino will earn a good grade on his Spanish test.
B
Gino will be unable to find the community center.
C
Gino will be surprised by his friends’ plans.
D
Gino will play music for his friends.
Explanation
Gino thinks he is meeting his friends to study, but they have secretly planned a birthday celebration and are waiting with a cake and cards. Because he does not know about their plans, he will be surprised when he arrives. The paragraph does not suggest that he will earn a good grade, get lost, or play music for his friends.
