1.3.1 Recognize the text (CR8B)

Be a literature detective! Do you recognize which short story these lines are from?

  1. “That mean, freckled face, with the glasses over those hard little green eyes, the small, pursed lips, the mop of frizzy red hair topping it all.”

  2. “I suddenly realized that whenever people said good things about us, my parents always contradicted them and said how bad we really were.”

  3. “So he lifted the jug and opened his mouth and drank it all – except for the bit that trickled down his chin on to his jersey.”

  4. “(...) a big BMW 3.3 Li, which means 3.3 litre, long wheelbase, fuel injection. It had a top speed of 129 mph and terrific acceleration.”

  5. “Underpants with fairies on them and pink. I nearly freaked out. I thought about what Scrag Murphy would say if he ever heard about them.”
