I GIVE Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen
When I was twelve years old and Barton, my older
brother, was around fifteen, we took over the family
basement. At first, I made a darkroom for
developing pictures, and Bart was using it as his lab
where he was raising about one hundred white rats,
removing their thymus glands, and trying to figure
out the glands' dysfunction. He wanted pictures
taken of his experiment, doing the surgery on rats,
and since I already had a darkroom, I took the
pictures, though somewhat reluctantly. I didn't like
the blood
Which part of the excerpt expresses an opinion?
we took over
I made a darkroom for developing pictures
O he was raising about one hundred white rats
