Question 1 of 10
1. It was Saturday morning, and Angie's little angels were bored with nothing to do. Being a conscientious parent, Angie announced that homework came first. Her son, Michael, disappeared into his room to practice dancing on the head of a pin for his drama presentation, but her daughter, Angelica, asked for help with her homework. In school they were learning about subjects, verbs and objects, and all of the other objects which join together to form what set of words?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 8 letters - l, s)
Question 2 of 10
2. Michael entered the kitchen and informed his mother that he really wanted to go out and get some exercise by riding around the neighbourhood. What was Michael riding on?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 5 letters -l, c)
Question 3 of 10
3. Angie looked out the window and saw that it looked like rain. She gave Michael permission to go out but told him that he must put on this article of clothing first. What did Michael have to wear?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 6 letters - l, j)
Question 4 of 10
4. Finished with her homework, Angelica announced that she too wanted to go outside, but just then a loud crash of thunder was heard. Afraid of thunder, her pretty eyes immediately clouded over with worry. To distract her, Angie offered to put Angelica's hair in a French Braid, something that she had wanted to try for a while. What was it that Angie was doing to her daughter's hair?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 5 letters - l, s)
Question 5 of 10
5. Michael came in at that point, dripping wet from the rain. Unlike his sister he really liked a thunder storm, and he was singing "Raindrops on Roses" from "The Sound of Music". His singing made his sister giggle, but another crash of thunder left her frightened again. In an attempt to distract her from her fear, Michael turned up the volume on his singing. Angie smiled with pride at the way her son could really ______ it out. What expression was Angie thinking of?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 4 letters - l, b)
Question 6 of 10
6. That crash of thunder marked the passing of the worst of the storm, although the rain continued to fall. Fortunately Angie had a vast number of craft activities in her repertoire, to help keep the children occupied. What word, infrequently used with this meaning, could be used to describe Angie's assortment of craft ideas?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 4 letters, l, r)
Question 7 of 10
7. Angie got out the modeling clay and encouraged her children to make different shapes with it. They took great pleasure in rolling and stretching it, and moulding it into various shapes. What is another word for the process of shaping the clay?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 4 letters - l, f)
Question 8 of 10
8. Feeling especially creative, Michael decided to get a knife from the drawer (when Angie wasn't looking of course). He felt that he could create even better shapes if he cut the clay, but his hand slipped and he ended up cutting himself instead. What did Michael get on the clay?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 5 letters - l, b)
Question 9 of 10
9. Upset because her brother was hurt, Angelica ran to her room to get a candy to share with him. The candies she had were round with holes in the middle, and although they came in all different flavours, the ones she had were butterscotch. What did Angelica give her brother?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 5 letters - l, s)
Question 10 of 10
10. Once Michael was bandaged and the crafts put away, Angie's thoughts turned, as they often did, to the thoughts of having more children. She was worried that the house wasn't big enough, and accepted the fact that she would have to add an extension to the house first. The problem with that was that she didn't want to take away any of their playing space in the yard. The only real solution to that problem was to build up, she realized. What was Angie going to add to her house?

Answer: (Two Words - 4 and 5 letters - l, s)

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. It was Saturday morning, and Angie's little angels were bored with nothing to do. Being a conscientious parent, Angie announced that homework came first. Her son, Michael, disappeared into his room to practice dancing on the head of a pin for his drama presentation, but her daughter, Angelica, asked for help with her homework. In school they were learning about subjects, verbs and objects, and all of the other objects which join together to form what set of words?

Answer: life sentence

While working on teaching her daughter how to structure a grammatically correct sentence, the irony of the expression life sentence was not lost on Angie.
A life sentence is a sentence imposed by the courts for only the most serious of crimes. Despite the implication of the name, very few life sentences actually last the length of the prisoner's life, although they do generally last quite some time.
Given her life-affirming nature, Angie found a life sentence infinitely preferable to a death sentence.
2. Michael entered the kitchen and informed his mother that he really wanted to go out and get some exercise by riding around the neighbourhood. What was Michael riding on?

Answer: life cycle

Although he was studying the life cycle of butterflies in school, Michael gave no thought to the changes and transitions that mark the lives of every living thing. He was more concerned with burning off the energy that couldn't be burned off while dancing on a surface as small as a pin head.
3. Angie looked out the window and saw that it looked like rain. She gave Michael permission to go out but told him that he must put on this article of clothing first. What did Michael have to wear?

Answer: life jacket

A life jacket is a flotation device that is used to keep people safe in the water. They are often used when teaching young children how to swim, and should be available on all boats and airplanes. Despite the fact that it is called a jacket, it is generally sleeveless, and more closely resembles a vest.
Of course the jacket that Michael put on to keep himself dry against the rain would not be useful in the event of a boating accident!
4. Finished with her homework, Angelica announced that she too wanted to go outside, but just then a loud crash of thunder was heard. Afraid of thunder, her pretty eyes immediately clouded over with worry. To distract her, Angie offered to put Angelica's hair in a French Braid, something that she had wanted to try for a while. What was it that Angie was doing to her daughter's hair?

Answer: life style

A life style is a description of a person's way of life, that tends to focus on what they do, both for work and recreation, how they live and what they own, among other things.
Angie gave no thought to her own life style, as she styled her daughter's hair into an elegant French Braid, which they both liked very much.
5. Michael came in at that point, dripping wet from the rain. Unlike his sister he really liked a thunder storm, and he was singing "Raindrops on Roses" from "The Sound of Music". His singing made his sister giggle, but another crash of thunder left her frightened again. In an attempt to distract her from her fear, Michael turned up the volume on his singing. Angie smiled with pride at the way her son could really ______ it out. What expression was Angie thinking of?

Answer: life belt

A life belt is another kind of flotation device that is worn around the waist. Filled with either air, or a very light fabric, it also helps keep a person afloat in the water, but because it isn't designed to necessarily keep the person's face out of the water, it isn't as safe as a life jacket. At our local YMCA, life belts are most often used to help people keep afloat during Aquafit classes.
Michael wasn't thinking about Aquafit classes while he was singing in a loud a vigorous matter, to help his sister forget her fear, it wasn't raining that much!
6. That crash of thunder marked the passing of the worst of the storm, although the rain continued to fall. Fortunately Angie had a vast number of craft activities in her repertoire, to help keep the children occupied. What word, infrequently used with this meaning, could be used to describe Angie's assortment of craft ideas?

Answer: life raft

A life raft (also known as a life boat) is a smaller boat that is carried on larger ships and used in the event of an emergency. Part of the tragedy that happened on the night that the Titanic sunk was because it did not contain enough life rafts to offer all everyone onboard a seat.
The noun raft can also be used when talking about a large number of things, such as in 'a raft of ideas'.
7. Angie got out the modeling clay and encouraged her children to make different shapes with it. They took great pleasure in rolling and stretching it, and moulding it into various shapes. What is another word for the process of shaping the clay?

Answer: life form

A life form is a definition for any living thing, including people, animals and plant life. It is an expression that is frequently used in Science Fiction movies.
The shapes that the kids formed weren't life forms though, as they were made of clay and were not alive.
8. Feeling especially creative, Michael decided to get a knife from the drawer (when Angie wasn't looking of course). He felt that he could create even better shapes if he cut the clay, but his hand slipped and he ended up cutting himself instead. What did Michael get on the clay?

Answer: life blood

Derived from the red liquid that runs through the circulatory system and feeds the rest of the body with oxygen and nutrients, the expression life blood is usually used to describe something or someone that is a vital part of a larger thing or organization. Fund raising, for example, might be the life blood of a non-profit organization, meaning that the organization relied on fund raising to stay alive.
9. Upset because her brother was hurt, Angelica ran to her room to get a candy to share with him. The candies she had were round with holes in the middle, and although they came in all different flavours, the ones she had were butterscotch. What did Angelica give her brother?

Answer: life saver

The expression life saver is often used to describe a person or thing that helps someone out on a tight spot, or gets them out of a bad situation.
Of course this was not the Lifesaver that Angelica gave her brother; his cut wasn't that bad!
Lifesaver candies were the brainchild of candy maker Clarence Crane. He invented them in 1912, while looking for a candy that wouldn't melt in the heat.
10. Once Michael was bandaged and the crafts put away, Angie's thoughts turned, as they often did, to the thoughts of having more children. She was worried that the house wasn't big enough, and accepted the fact that she would have to add an extension to the house first. The problem with that was that she didn't want to take away any of their playing space in the yard. The only real solution to that problem was to build up, she realized. What was Angie going to add to her house?

Answer: life story

A life story is the telling (whether in written or oral form) of everything that has occurred in a person's life. The longer a person lives and the more that they experience, the more interesting that story becomes.
The story that Angie wants to add to her house is a second story, or second floor.
