TEST 3 



The words 



MORNING THE RISES EVERY SUN 

 in that order don't make a sentence; but they would make a sentence if 

 put in the right order : 



THE SUN RISES EVERY MORNING 

 and this statement is true. 

 Again, the words 



ANIMAL A IS THE RARE DOG 

 would make a sentence if put in the order: 



THE DOG IS A RARE ANIMAL 

 but this statement is false. 



Below are twenty mixed-up sentences. Some of them are true and 

 some are false. When I say "go," take these sentences one at a time. 

 Decide what each sentence would say if the words were straightened out, 

 but don't write them yourself. Then, if what it would say is true, draw a 

 line under the word "true:" if what it would say is false, draw a line 

 under the world "false." If you cannot be sure, guess. The two samples 

 are already marked as they should be. Begin with No. 1 and work right 

 down the page until time is called.
