Question 1: How is Ava feeling?

Look at what Ava did:
- She “huffed” — that means she made an angry or frustrated sound.
- She “stomped away... noisily” — stomping shows anger or upset feelings.
- She “kicked off her boots violently” — violent actions usually mean strong emotions like anger.
- One boot even hit the wall — that’s not something you do when you’re calm.

So, Ava is probably feeling angry, frustrated, or upset.

✔ Evidence: Her loud noises, stomping, and kicking her boots violently show she’s not happy.

Question 2: What has Ava just been doing?

The text says:
> “Ava huffed and stomped away from the football pitch...”

That tells us she was at the football pitch — so she was likely playing football (soccer) or practicing with her team.

Also, she had muddy boots — which makes sense if she was playing outside on grass or dirt.

✔ So, Ava has just been playing football (or training for it).

Question 3: What do you think has happened to make Ava feel this way?

We don’t know exactly what happened — but we can guess based on clues.

She left the pitch angrily → maybe something went wrong during the game or practice.

Possible reasons:
- She lost the game.
- Someone said something mean to her.
- She made a mistake and felt bad about it.
- The coach yelled at her.
- Her team didn’t play well.

Any of these could make someone stomp off and kick their boots!

✔ Best guess: Something upsetting happened during football — like losing, making a mistake, or having an argument.

Final Answer:

1. Ava is feeling angry or upset. Evidence: She huffed, stomped noisily, and kicked her boots violently.

2. Ava has just been playing football (or training) because she came from the football pitch and had muddy boots.

3. Something probably went wrong during football — like losing the game, making a mistake, or having an argument — which made her feel angry.
