Correct Answer

A. True

- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

The statement suggests that it is likely that Robin Hood lived in the twelfth century. However, there is no concrete evidence to support this claim, and the existence of Robin Hood is often considered more of a legend or folklore. Therefore, the statement is most likely false.

Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

The statement claims that there is a castle in the middle of Sherwood forest. However, there is no evidence or historical record to support this claim. Sherwood forest is known for its association with Robin Hood, an outlaw who lived in the forest, not for having a castle. Therefore, the statement is false.
