    All that the girl wants is to be loved. True or false? 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    This statement cannot be determined as true or false without more information. While it is possible that the girl wants to be loved, it cannot be assumed to be true for all girls universally. People have different desires and aspirations, and it is not accurate to make a blanket statement about what every girl wants. Therefore, the correct answer is false.

    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement implies that the nightingale sacrifices her life for the oak tree's sake. However, this is false. Nightingales do not sacrifice their lives for the sake of oak trees or any other reason.

    Explanation
    The Nightingale, moved by the student's sorrow over not having a red rose to give to his beloved, seeks out a red rose bush.

    The story is described from the point of view of __________. 

    • Omniscient

    • Objective

    • 1st person

    • 3rd person

    Correct Answer
    A. 3rd person
    Explanation
    The story is described from the point of view of the third person. This means that the narrator is not a character in the story and refers to the characters as "he," "she," or "they." The third-person point of view allows the narrator to have a broader perspective and knowledge of the events and characters in the story. It provides an objective and unbiased view of the story, allowing the reader to observe the actions and thoughts of multiple characters.

    • Love is a sill thing

    • Everything turns out right if you try your hardest

    • That love isn't half as useful as logic is

    Correct Answer
    A. That love isn't half as useful as logic is
    Explanation
    The student learned that love is not as useful as logic. Throughout the story, they may have encountered situations where love did not solve their problems or bring them happiness. Instead, they realized that using logic and reasoning helped them achieve their goals and overcome obstacles. This realization led them to believe that relying on logic is more beneficial than relying on love.

    • They are both beautiful

    • They are both fake on the outside

    Correct Answer
    A. They are both beneficial in the end of the story
    Explanation
    The given answer states that the rose and the girl are NOT similar in terms of being beneficial in the end of the story. This means that either the rose or the girl does not contribute positively or have a positive impact towards the end of the story. The other options mention similarities between the rose and the girl such as being valuable, beautiful, and fake on the outside.

    • The student cant find a rose to give to the girl

    • The girl only wants someone wealthy to take her to the dance

    • The Chamberlin's nephew finds a prettier rose than the student

    Correct Answer
    A. The girl only wants someone wealthy to take her to the dance
    Explanation
    The main conflict in the story is that the girl only wants someone wealthy to take her to the dance. This creates tension and conflict because it shows that the girl values material wealth over genuine connection or compatibility. It also highlights the superficiality and shallowness of her character, which creates a conflict between her desires and the values of the other characters or the overall theme of the story.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Which of the following is NOT an example of how the student's sad ending was foreshadowed?

    • When the student receives the rose from the nightingale

    • The student is not passionate or a true lover

    • The girl is spoiled

    • When the student lies down, cries, and gives up finding the rose

    Correct Answer
    A. When the student receives the rose from the nightingale
    Explanation
    The correct answer is when the student receives the rose from the nightingale. This is not an example of how the student's sad ending was foreshadowed because receiving a rose from the nightingale does not indicate any negative or tragic outcome for the student. It is a positive gesture that initially brings joy to the student. Foreshadowing typically involves subtle hints or clues that suggest a future event or outcome, but in this case, receiving the rose does not foreshadow any negative consequences.
