A) As Alia begins to read the Maya glyphs around the archaeological site in Mexico, she realizes her unwavering devotion to studying the ancient writing system was not quite sufficient to translate them.

B) As Alla rides through the lowlands of Mexico on an air-conditioned bus, she realizes the stark difference between her expectations of the landscape and the reality of unruly houses and refuse.
