Read EXTRACT A and answer the questions that follow.
EXTRACT A
The Giant picked up the trembling Sophie with one hand and carried her across the
cave and put her on the table.
Now he really is going to eat me, Sophie thought.
The Giant sat down and stared hard at Sophie. He had truly enormous ears. Each
one was as big as the wheel of a truck and he seemed to be able to move them inwards
and outwards from his head as he wished.
‘I is hungry!’ the Giant boomed. He grinned, showing his massive square teeth.
The teeth were very white and very square and they sat in his mouth like huge slices
of white bread.
‘P . . . please don’t eat me,’ Sophie stammered.
The Giant let out a bellow of laughter. ‘Just because I is a giant, you think I is a
mangobblying cannybull!’ he shouted.
