 * LANGUAGE LITERATURE TEXTS – 2012**

This year’s Language Literature Challenge requires knowledge from the following selection of texts. Students are invited to start reading them now. You may wish to make suggestions to them regarding suitability for their age level.

William Shakespeare: //Romeo and Juliet// / //Macbeth// Charles Dickens: //A Christmas Carol// / //Oliver Twist// Roald Dahl: //James and the Giant Peach// / //The Twits// The Beatles: //She’s Leaving Home// / //Eleanor Rigby// / //Hey Jude// / //Maxwell’s Silver// //Hammer//

Of course, you will need to wait until the Challenges are released to find out exactly how these texts are to be used and how many texts the students will need to incorporate into their Challenge solution.

Please note that judges will be assessing students on the printed texts, rather than film or animated versions that may be available.

Otherwise, he goes to the seventh floor and walks up three flights of stairs to his apartment. <span style="color: #ff0000; display: block; font-family: 'lucida sans unicode','lucida grande',sans-serif; text-align: center;">Can you explain why? <span style="color: #ff0000; display: block; font-family: 'lucida sans unicode','lucida grande',sans-serif; text-align: center;">Kato1999 <span style="font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">Answer: <span style="background-color: #000000; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">The man is of short stature.

Thinking laterally and solving problems is great for our brains. How about trying to solve this riddle?

A grandfather is telling his grandson war stories.

"//At the end of World War 1, I was awarded for my bravery// //after saving a group of my men," the grandfather says.//

//"You see, we were fighting in northern France and one of our// //enemies threw a grenade at us. I managed to pick it up and//  //throw it away before it exploded. So right after the war//  //ended, a General gave me a sword, engraved with the words//  //'Awarded for Bravery and Valor, A True Hero, World War 1'//".

The grandson thinks about the story for a minute and then says "Grandpa, that story can't be true!"

How did the grandson know? want to check up on the answer?
