Are you smarter than a 5th Grader?

  • Contributed by: Marziya Farooq A1-C1

    1. Am impure stone, short of one word, And in Urdu the pronunciation occurred; Indicates options, when you are given choices, An avenger and this have similar voices.

    2. A bad grade,
    Mathematical aid,
    Shape of half a moon,
    Guess it soon.

    3. Indicates fifty,
    A prefix used in Spain,
    A death note character,
    Who looked borderline insane.

    4. In a speech it is a desirable tone,
    Pleasant to feel in the facial zone,
    Dangerous to see this quality in a land,
    It has a close enough name with an anti-allergy brand.

    5. Pronounced two ways, depending on where it is placed,
    Substitutes you, if one has old fashioned taste,
    The word may be small but it’s the longest article,
    Just add an H in the tellurium particle.

    6. An important tool for puppet control,
    In a kite set, it exists in a roll,
    It also happens to be a name of a band,
    In a guitar, they are struck by hand.

    7. Honored figureheads in Christian history,
    But guessing the answer won’t solve the mystery,
    Abbreviate the word; you must have seen it around,
    Then cut them out form the 4th and 6th answer you found.

    Consider the first 3 clues as a jumbled mess,
    Sort them out and what do you get?
    Can you guess?
