OK, I'm game. Here are my answers:
1) D
2) D
3) A (but this would be too rational)
4) D (can we add "E" bitch about the decline of standards as we do all of the above?)
5) D (but then again I wasn't there)
6) D (You shoulda been doing A and B and have had too much of C--spare your lips)
Put it all together and it spells "DDADDD" which is what children are supposed to say in mid-June.
I was going to say cheating from this distance would be hard, but then RPD posted answers first, so can I just read Middlemarch again anyway?
My answers are:
d (but I'm looking for "e" all of the above)
d
b (I can imagine you doing this with a perfectly straight face, but I'd guess the real answer is something more like d, but truly, a is the right answer...)
d - but you didn't include the option to make the next assignment harder, so....
d
d
