Predictions About Emily's Performance

In the small town of Maplewood, the annual Spring Festival was the highlight of the year. Residents would come together to celebrate with local food stalls, games for children, and live music from local bands. This year, Emily, a talented young violinist, eagerly awaited her chance to perform on the main stage. She had been practicing for months, but a week before the festival, Emily came down with a cold that left her unable to play. Determined not to let her community down, she decided to rest and hopes to recover in time. As the day of the festival approached, she began to worry about whether she would be well enough to perform.

The night before the festival, Emily sat by the window, listening to the distant sounds of laughter and music. She thought about her friends and neighbors who looked forward to her performance every year. As she watched the stars twinkle in the clear sky, she decided that if she could manage to play, she would give it everything she had, even if it meant playing less than perfectly.

What might happen if Emily is unable to perform at the Spring Festival?
