What role will the speaker be next year at Shiner High School?

• A. Band leader
• B. Cheer captain
• C. Feature twirler
• D. Drum major

Answer: (C)

Inferring the future role from context clues about activities and responsibilities at Shiner High School is what the question asks. The best fit is a feature twirler when the passage describes baton twirling, performance routines, and being showcased with the band. This role focuses on performing with flair rather than directing the group or leading cheers, which would point to other positions like drum major, band leader, or cheer captain. So the described future role aligns with being a feature twirler. To recognize this in text, look for phrases about baton twirling, routines, and performing alongside the band.
