function data = helperReadData(filename, variables)
% Read data variables for the fileEnsemble
%
% Inputs:
% filename  - a string of the file name to read from.
% variables - a string array containing variable names to read.
%             It must be a subset of DataVariables specified
%             in fileEnsembleDatastore.
% Output:
% data      - return a table with a single row
