Question

Alex pondered the situation. His neighbor's new kitten, Madge, had managed to climb onto the garage roof, but she now seemed to be

utterly panicked and completely at a loss as to how to get back to solid ground. Alex considered climbing a nearby tree and jumping the short
distance onto the roof to rescue Madge. But he rejected that thought. Instead, he got a ladder, propped it against the garage, and cautiously
climbed toward the frightened kitten. He gently scooped up Madge, descended the ladder, and placed her in his neighbor's arms. The neighbor
smiled and thanked Alex for his heroic gesture.
