Need help please...It's urgentwhat is the main problem of the story... What Do You Do With A Lost Unicorn? Written by Katie Thompson-Chapter 3

By the time we have managed to pull the now snoring unicorn out onto the driveway, the color in Joe’s face completely gone. “How…Where…Did this thing come from?” he asks, panting.
“What, afraid it’s real after all?” I ask.
He looks up at me and offers a half-smile. “Who wants unicorns to be real if they look like that?”
I hide a laugh. “Well…Now we just have to figure out how to wake it up.” I poke it a few times with my foot, trying to keep some distance. It just keeps snoring.
Joe shrugs and bends down next to its ugly face and starts jiggling its shoulder, like he’s trying to wake up a very old uncle.
Suddenly its eyes open wide, and with an unbelievable grace, it stands upright. Joe jumps away to give it space, and I just keep staring at it. It walks over to the desert-style landscaping of my neighbor’s side yard and being perusing for its breakfast.
“That thing’s a lot more agile than I imagined it would be,” Joe says. We both stare at it as it saunters around, pulling up the grassy weeds from between the rock mulch. “So…that’s a unicorn.”
I look up at Joe and he's got this silly grin on his face. It's just so 'Joe' that I giggle. “Do you believe that's what it is yet?” I ask.
“I could if I wanted to,” he replied.
I looked up at him, questioning.
“That thing,” he points to the unicorn. “I could believe it was if I wanted to.”
The unicorn seems to have decided that it isn’t going to find anything worth eating here and starts to walk down the sloping back yard to the next street. It looks almost like it belongs there, like a stray deer who often grazes around this part of town when no person is awake or watching. When it disappears from our sight, I feel like a ton of responsibility has been lifted from me.
The whole morning seems almost trivial. “Well,” I say, “I guess that is that?”
Joe shrugs, checks his watch, and motions toward the bus stop. “We should get going,” he says. I grab my bag, and we walk down the driveway.
“I don't know if that thing was a unicorn or not,” he says, looking up into the sky like he might see a dragon flying around to confirm my claim. “But I'm glad you called me this morning.”
“Sorry I was…not very nice,” I say, hesitating.
He laughs a little but keeps looking around. Then with a huge gulp of air, “Do you believe we could be friends again? Like, real friends again? Because I gotta say, I really do miss you, Anna.”
I smile, remembering what he said earlier and reply, “I believe we could if we wanted to.”
This time he looks over at me. “…And?”
“And I really hope we want to.”

Memories of a memory have you ever witnessed something amazing, shocking or surprising and found when describing the event that your story seems to change the more you tell it? have you ever experienced a time when you couldn't really describe something you saw in a way that others could understand? if so, you may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable as evidence in scientific inquiries and trials. new insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things. first, memory is vague. imagine your room at home or a classroom you see every day. most likely, you could describe the room very generally. you could name the color of the walls, the floors, the decorations. but the image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room. memory tends to save a blurry image of what we have seen rather than specific details. so when a witness tries to identify someone, her brain may recall that the person was tall, but not be able to say how tall when faced with several tall people. there are lots of different kinds of "tall." second, memory uses general knowledge to fill in gaps. our brains reconstruct events and scenes when we remember something. to do this, our brains use other memories and other stories when there are gaps. for example, one day at a library you go to quite frequently, you witness an argument between a library patron and one of the librarians. later, when telling a friend about the event, your brain may remember a familiar librarian behind the desk rather than the actual participant simply because it is recreating a familiar scene. in effect, your brain is combining memories to you tell the story. third, your memory changes over time. it also changes the more you retell the story. documented cases have shown eyewitnesses adding detail to testimony that could not have been known at the time of the event. research has also shown that the more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is. you may have noticed this yourself. the next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add, or what your brain wants to add, to the account. you may also notice that you drop certain details from previous tellings of the story. with individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true. did you really break your mother's favorite vase when you were three? was that really your father throwing rocks into the river with you when you were seven? the human brain may be quite remarkable indeed. when it comes to memory, however, we may want to start carrying video cameras if we want to record the true picture. part a and part b below contain one fill-in-the-blank to be used for all three question responses. your complete response must be in the format a, b, c including the letter choice, commas, and a space after the commas. part a: which of the following best explains why memories from childhood are unreliable? fill in blank 1 using a, b, or c. our brains add details and general knowledge to childhood memories. our brains are not as reliable as video cameras are. our brains create new stories to make the past more interesting. part b select one quotation from the text that supports your answer to part a. add your selection to blank 1 using e, f, or g. but the image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room. when a witness tries to identify someone, her brain may recall that the person was tall, but not be able to say how tall. to do this, our brains use other memories and other stories when there are gaps. select one quotation from the text that supports your answer to part a. add your selection to blank 1 using h, i, or j. documented cases have shown eyewitnesses adding detail to testimony that could not have been known at the time of the event. with individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true. when it comes to memory, however, we may want to start carrying video cameras if we want to record the true picture answer for blank 1:
