The art-student approached (4) the professor to ask why the grade was so poor .The professor told him that proportions (5) in the painting were incorrect. “The head is too big,” The professor explained, “the shoulders are too wide, and the feet are enormous (6).”
The next day, the art-student brought Peter to see the professor. He took one look at my brother. “Okay, A minus,” he said.
