✔ Answer: Supergirl
2. She’s thin and ugly. She’s got a long nose and her hair’s purple. She can fly because she’s got a magic broom and magic powers. Who is she? She’s _________.

Use "is" for states/characteristics (e.g., ugly, pretty), and "has got" for possessions (e.g., hair, eyes).
1. She is ugly. She has got purple hair.
→ "ugly" is a state → is, "hair" is a possession → has got
2. He is from Krypton. He has got blue eyes.
→ "from Krypton" = location/state → is, "eyes" = physical feature → has got
3. She has got long black hair. She is pretty.
→ "hair" = possession → has got, "pretty" = state → is
4. His brown hair is long. He has got lots of friends in the jungle.
→ "hair is long" = description → is, "friends" = possession → has got
✔ Answers:
1. is / has
2. is / has
3. has / is
4. is / has

We must choose the correct character based on clues.
1. He hasn’t got short hair and his eyes are brown.
→ Long hair + brown eyes → Tarzan
✔ Answer: Tarzan
2. She isn’t pretty and her face is green.
→ Ugly, green face → the witch
✔ Answer: the witch
3. His hair isn’t long. He’s got a square face.
→ Short hair, square face → Superman (he has short hair and a strong jawline)
✔ Answer: Superman
4. She can fly because of her special powers.
→ Both Supergirl and the witch can fly, but the witch uses a broom, while Supergirl uses powers. The clue says “special powers” → Supergirl
But it says “or”, so both could be possible. But since the witch uses a *magic broom*, not just powers, the best fit is Supergirl.
✔ Answer: Supergirl or the witch (but only Supergirl fits “special powers” without a tool)
✔ Answer: Supergirl (main answer), or the witch (if including magical tools)
