Read through the excerpts and determine which three are anecdotes. My family and I sat in the family room, glued to the TV as we
watched Neil Armstrong step onto the surface of the moon.
Kitchen windows are made of strong glass. They are usually
set within wood or metal casings.
Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk. on the

his accomplishment unfold on TV.
We rode our bikes to the ice cream shop and stood outside

1. he leaned on the wall and observed me carefully.

2. his harsh scrutiny made me self-conscious of my skills in the lab.

3. perhaps it was just me, but the air in the laboratory began to thicken as i found myself having difficulty to breathe.

4. i turned to look at him fully as i mentally prepared myself for what my very first words would be to thomas edison.

5. the next couple of seconds shocked me. it wasn't me who spoke, but rather him and with diction i could never think of using in a simple sentence.
