Task 2: Justify Your Prediction
You need to explain why you chose your answer and provide a sentence from the story that hints at a happy ending.

Task 3: Unscramble the Words
You are given two sets of scrambled letters:
ODPRU and
AARDFI. You need to unscramble them to form words.
#### Unscrambling:
1.
ODPRU →
RODUP (This doesn't form a common word. Let's recheck: It should be
PROUD.)
2.
AARDFI →
FARIDA (This doesn't form a common word. Let's recheck: It should be
FARAD or
FARADAI. However, the correct answer is likely
FARAD.)
Correct Answer:
-
ODPRU →
PROUD
-
AARDFI →
FARAD
