The girl who was absent made a bad decision. You see, had she come to school, she could have asked for a plus 2 on the test. But now that she missed school, she’s going to have to make up the test a different day, and she won’t be able to request the plus two anymore because it won’t be her birthday. But then again, perhaps on her day off she did some additional studying and increased her grade by more than two points, in which case she made a good decision. Or maybe she would just rather have a day off than do well on the test. But she’ll probably ask for the plus 2 anyway and say that before it was her Hebrew birthday and now it’s her English birthday.
