Read the story below and choose the best answers.
Last eve before the science fair, Leo was in a heat of excitement. He wanted to define what makes a planet special. He used a long string and a thick rope to hang models of Mars and Venus from the ceiling. To make the base of his project strong, he had to paste many layers of paper together.
Suddenly, he found a small hole in his poster. He used a pin to fix a photo over it. He didn't collect enough facts yet, so perhaps he would stay up late. His father walked in and gave a small nod. He didn't want to excuse Leo from his homework, but he decided to raise Leo’s spirits by bringing him some snacks.
"Don't deal with all the stress alone," his father said. "It is possible to win the first prize if you work hard, but your health is quite important too." Leo looked at the angle of his models under the lantern light. He decided to invite his best friend to help him finish the work.
