Looking at the worksheet, we need to complete the dialogue from the movie “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs” by choosing the correct word from the box:
Originality, phenomenon, Severely, Appreciation
The sentence is:
>
Flint’s Mom: The world needs your ________, Flint. You just have to grow into it. And I know that you’re gonna do big things someday.
Let’s think step by step:
1. The speaker is Flint’s mom — she’s encouraging him, believing in his potential.
2. She says “you’re gonna do big things someday” — this suggests she believes he has something special inside him.
3. The word should fit naturally after “your” and make sense with “grow into it.”
4. Let’s test each option:
-
Originality → “The world needs your originality” — makes sense! It means being unique or creative. Flint is an inventor, so this fits.
-
Phenomenon → “The world needs your phenomenon” — doesn’t sound right. A phenomenon is a rare event, not something you “have” like a trait.
-
Severely → “The world needs your severely” — grammatically wrong. “Severely” is an adverb, not a noun.
-
Appreciation → “The world needs your appreciation” — possible, but doesn’t match the context of Flint’s future potential or creativity.
Also, looking at the answer already filled in the worksheet:
> 1. Flint’s Mom: The world needs your
Originality, Flint...
That matches our reasoning.
✔ Final Answer:
Originality
