Question 1 of 22 Read the following paragraph:
I had been student council president for a month now, and
the meetings covered a wide variety of topics. Today's
meeting had run long, and when we opened the floor up to
questions, Alan's hand shot up immediately. Nobody else
had a question. Great, I thought sarcastically. It will
probably be something about how we didn't use Robert's
Rules of Order correctly, or something equally boring.
