Let’s go through each pair of opposites and match them with the correct picture.
We have 6 boxes, each with two opposite words (like “BIG - SMALL”) and two pictures. We need to write which picture matches the first word and which matches the second word.
---
Box 1: BIG - SMALL
Pictures: Pig and Turtle
→ The pig is bigger than the turtle.
So:
a. BIG → Pig
b. SMALL → Turtle
---
Box 2: TALL - SHORT
Pictures: Giraffe and Kangaroo
→ The giraffe is taller than the kangaroo.
So:
a. TALL → Giraffe
b. SHORT → Kangaroo
---
Box 3: FAST - SLOW
Pictures: Rabbit and Dog
→ Rabbits are usually faster than dogs in short bursts (and in cartoons too!). But wait — actually, let’s think again. In real life, some dogs can run fast, but rabbits are known for being quick and darting away. Also, looking at the images — the rabbit looks like it’s hopping quickly, the dog is sitting calmly. So we’ll go with:
a. FAST → Rabbit
b. SLOW → Dog
*(Note: This one might be tricky, but based on common teaching examples, rabbit = fast, dog = slow here.)*
---
Box 4: EXPENSIVE - CHEAP
Pictures: Airplane and Car
→ An airplane costs way more than a car.
So:
a. EXPENSIVE → Airplane
b. CHEAP → Car
---
Box 5: UGLY - BEAUTIFUL
Pictures: Girl with messy hair and girl with nice dress and bow
→ The girl with messy hair and frown is labeled “UGLY” (in cartoon terms), the other is smiling and dressed nicely → “BEAUTIFUL”
So:
a. UGLY → Left girl (messy hair)
b. BEAUTIFUL → Right girl (nice dress)
---
Box 6: OLD - YOUNG
Pictures: Old man with cane and young boy
→ Clearly, the old man is “OLD”, the boy is “YOUNG”
So:
a. OLD → Old man
b. YOUNG → Young boy
---
Now let’s write all answers clearly:
Final Answer:
1. a. Pig, b. Turtle
2. a. Giraffe, b. Kangaroo
3. a. Rabbit, b. Dog
4. a. Airplane, b. Car
5. a. Ugly girl (left), b. Beautiful girl (right)
6. a. Old man, b. Young boy
