  • 3. 

    Why does Despereaux go into the room where the humans are?

      He wants to be closer to the music.

    • D.

      He smells cheese.

    Correct Answer
    C. He wants to be closer to the music.
    Explanation
    Despereaux goes into the room where the humans are because he wants to be closer to the music. This suggests that he is attracted to the sound and wants to experience it more closely. The other options, such as running into the room accidentally, being asked by Princess Pea, or smelling cheese, are not mentioned in the given answer and therefore can be ruled out as explanations.

    Rate this question:

  • 4.

      A mouse.

    • C.

      A rat.

    • D.

      A child.

    Correct Answer
    A. A bug.
    Explanation
    King Phillip thinks that Despereaux is a bug because he is small and has mouse-like features. He does not recognize Despereaux as a mouse or a rat, but rather sees him as a small, insignificant insect. This perception of Despereaux as a bug is likely due to King Phillip's ignorance or lack of knowledge about mice and rats.
