Let’s go through each part of the worksheet step by step.

---

Part 1: Character Traits Matching

We need to match each trait on the left with the correct description on the right.

- timid → This means someone who is shy or scared easily. So it matches:
*“a person who shows a lack of courage or confidence”*

- stubborn → This means someone who won’t change their mind, even if they should. So it matches:
*“showing determination to not change one’s attitude”*

- grouchy → This means someone who is often in a bad mood or gets angry easily. So it matches:
*“a person who is irritable or bad-tempered”*

Final matches:
- timid → a person who shows a lack of courage or confidence
- stubborn → showing determination to not change one’s attitude
- grouchy → a person who is irritable or bad-tempered

Part 2: Multiple Meaning Words – “stamp”

First sentence:
> “Do you have a stamp I can use to mail my letter?”

When mailing a letter, you put a small sticky paper (postage stamp) on it. So the answer is:
a. a small piece of sticky paper to show postage has been paid

Second sentence:
> “I could hear my brother stamp his feet loudly when he got in trouble.”

Stamping your feet means hitting the ground hard with your foot — usually out of anger or frustration. So the answer is:
b. to pound with the bottom of the foot

Part 3: Synonyms or Antonyms?

Synonyms = words that mean the same thing
Antonyms = words that mean the opposite

1. invention, discovery → These are similar — both mean finding or creating something new.
Synonyms

2. signal, unimportant → Signal means important message; unimportant means not important. Opposites!
Antonyms

3. occasional, common → Occasional = happens sometimes; common = happens often. Not exactly opposites, but close — occasional is rare, common is frequent. So they’re more like antonyms.
Antonyms

4. contribute, add → Both mean to give or put something in. Same meaning.
Synonyms

5. improve, worsen → Improve = make better; worsen = make worse. Clear opposites.
Antonyms

Final answers:
1. Synonyms
2. Antonyms
3. Antonyms
4. Synonyms
5. Antonyms
