Let’s go step by step to match each sentence to the character trait it best shows.
We have these traits:
A = calm
B = thoughtful
C = cold-hearted
D = wishy washy
E = irritable
F = procrastinating
G = active
H = rude
Now, let’s look at each sentence:
---
1. “Why do it today, when I can do it tomorrow?”
→ This person is putting off work. That’s
procrastinating.
✔ Match:
F
---
2. “I’m sorry you’re not feeling well. Is there something I could help you with today?”
→ This person is caring and thinking about others’ feelings. That’s
thoughtful.
✔ Match:
B
---
3. “I’ll go with you. Well… um, I don’t know. Maybe I won’t go.”
→ This person can’t make up their mind. They’re unsure and changing their answer. That’s
wishy washy.
✔ Match:
D
---
4. “After school I am going to do my chores. Then I will probably do a run. Then I’ll play with my dog.”
→ This person has a busy, energetic plan. That’s
active.
✔ Match:
G
---
5. “That is the worst haircut I have ever seen on you.”
→ This is harsh and hurtful. That’s
rude.
✔ Match:
H
---
6. “That’s not my problem.”
→ This person doesn’t care about others’ issues. That’s
cold-hearted.
✔ Match:
C
---
7. “Hmm. Let’s think this problem through carefully and see what we can do about it.”
→ This person is calm and thinking things over. That’s
calm (and also thoughtful, but “calm” fits better here since they’re not rushing).
✔ Match:
A
---
Note: We didn’t use “irritable” (E) — that’s okay, the directions say not all traits will be used.
Final matches:
1 → F
2 → B
3 → D
4 → G
5 → H
6 → C
7 → A
Final Answer:
1. F
2. B
3. D
4. G
5. H
6. C
7. A
