Read the excerpt from the story Penguin Parade: An Antarctic Adventure:

We boarded a flight from Orlando, Florida to Buenos Aires in Argentina. We would board a ship that would take us from Argentina to the remote Snow Hill Island in the Weddell Sea. Mom slept for the whole plane ride, but I stayed awake and researched penguins that live in Antarctica on my phone. I didn't realize how many penguins didn't live in cold areas like Antarctica. Apparently, I wasn't the only one on the plane interested in reading about animals. The boy sitting across the aisle from me was reading a book about sharks, which was pretty neat.

"Hey," I whispered to the boy so I wouldn't wake up my mom. "Where are you heading?" He said nothing at first and gave me a funny look.

"Argentina, obviously," he said sarcastically as he turned the page in his book. I felt a bit awkward and glanced back at my phone. He didn't seem very friendly. After a while, he closed his book and turned towards me.

"Hey, I'm Steven. What's your name?" he asked. He smiled at me. "Sorry. I can be weird around new people."

"I'm Sally. We're heading to Argentina, too, but only so that we can get on a ship to Antarctica, we are going to see the emperor penguins and their chicks."

What does the reader learn about the trip to Antarctica, since it is told from Sally's point of view? (2 points)
Sally has always wanted to travel to Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Sally and her mom are going to see emperor penguins and their chicks.
Sally and her mom are going to see sharks, which is neat.
Sally and Steven both enjoy reading about animals.
