1 Answers: 1. Will accept any 3 of the following; BFG [first mentioned on Line 5] Fleshlumpeater [first mentioned on Line 11] Maidmasher [first mentioned on Line 13] Gizzardgulper [first mentioned on Line 16] 9 Where is you off to tonight? shouted the BFG. 10 We is all flushbunking off to England tonight, answered the 11 Fleshlumpeater as they went galloping past. England is a luctuous land and 12 we is fancying a few nice little English chiddlers. 13 I, shouted the Maidmasher, Is knowing where there is a gigglehouse for 14 girls and I is guzzling myself full as a frothblower! 15 And I knows where there is a bogglebox for boys! shouted the 16 Gizzardgulper. All I has to do is reach in and grab myself a handful! English 17 boys is tasting extra lickswishy! This question doesn t state whether it is asking specifically for the horrible giants so we will also accept the BFG. 2. a) A girls school [Line 21] 19 What did he mean? Sophie asked, poking her head out of the pocket, 20 What is a gigglehouse for girls? 21 He is meaning a girls school, the BFG said. He will be eating them by 22 the bundle. 23 Oh no! cried Sophie. 24 And boys from a boys school, said the BFG. 25 It mustn t happen! Sophie cried out. We ve got to stop them! We can t b) A boys school [Line 24] In the text, Sophie asks the BFG what a gigglehouse for girls is and he replies saying that it is a girl s school. Then he explains what a bogglebox for boys is, even though Sophie didn t ask. The children must mention the words girls and school and boys and school in order to get one mark for each.

2 3. Twenty four feet high [Line 48] 47 get used to it. There is nothing I can do. If I wasn t a titchy little runty giant 48 only twenty four feet high then I would be stopping them. But that is 49 absolutely out of the window. tells us his size when he is stating that he is too small to confront the other giants. The children must mention the units in order to gain the mark. 4. Chiddlers [Line 12] 11 Fleshlumpeater as they went galloping past. England is a luctuous land and 12 we is fancying a few nice little English chiddlers. 13 I, shouted the Maidmasher, Is knowing where there is a gigglehouse for Fleshlumpeater states here that they are going to England because they fancy a few nice little English chiddlers and as the text carries on the BFG confirms that they will be going to boy s schools and girl s schools to eat the children. Therefore, chiddlers means children. 5. [Similes compare 2 things, usually using the words as or like ] We will accept any 2 of the following; I is guzzling myself full as a frothblower [Line 14] 13 I, shouted the Maidmasher, Is knowing where there is a gigglehouse for 14 girls and I is guzzling myself full as a frothblower! 15 And I knows where there is a bogglebox for boys! shouted the After Maidmasher says that they are going to a girl s school, we can see here that he is saying that he is going to eat enough girls to make him full. We is helpless as horsefeathers [Line 27 28] 27 There s not a thing we can do, the BFG said. We is helpless as 28 horsefeathers. He sat down on a large craggy blue rock near the entrance to 29 his cave. He took Sophie from his pocket and put her beside him on the rock. Here, Sophie is trying to encourage the BFG to do something about the giants eating children but the BFG responds telling Sophie that they can t do anything and they are helpless. He goes on to say that he is smaller than the giants and won t catch up with them in time.

3 Like peas out of a poddle [Line 42] 41 Will he snatch them out of their beds while they re sleeping? 42 Like peas out of a poddle, the BFG said. 43 I can t bear to think of it! Sophie cried. When Sophie asks the BFG whether the giants take the children from their beds, he replies saying that the giants pick the children from their rooms like you would pick peas from a pod. 6. We will accept any of the following, for 1 mark; He is friendly to children He is smaller than the other giants [Line 47] He does not eat children [Line 45 46] 44 Then don t, the BFG said. For years and years I is sitting here on this 45 very rock every night after night when they is galloping away and I is feeling 46 so sad for all the human beans they is going to gobble up. But I has had to 47 get used to it. There is nothing I can do. If I wasn t a titchy little runty giant 48 only twenty four feet high then I would be stopping them. But that is does not join the other giants when they go out searching for children to eat. It says here on Line 45 to 46 that he sees the other giants running away to eat the children and he feels sad. This shows that he is different because he is the only giant that doesn t eat children. He also tells Sophie that he is smaller than the other giants and so he would not be able to stop them from eating children. And, as seen in this extract of the story, he is the only giant that is nice to children (he befriends Sophie). 7. a) Delicious / tasty (will accept anything that suggests it means a good taste) [Line 17] 16 Gizzardgulper. All I has to do is reach in and grab myself a handful! English 17 boys is tasting extra lickswishy! Here, Gizzardgulper tells the BFG that they are going to England because English boys are very tasty. b) Ridiculous [Line 35] 34 coming. 35 Redunculus and um possible, the BFG said. They is going two times

4 When Sophie suggests that they go back to England to tell people about the giants this is what the BFG says. Sometimes Roald Dahl makes the words that the giants use, very similar to the English language and this word is very similar to ridiculous. is saying that there is no way that they can get back to England before the giants get there, so her idea is ridiculous. c) Enormous / huge [Line 40] 37 But we can t just sit here doing nothing! Sophie cried. How many girls 38 and boys are they going to eat tonight? 39 Many, the BFG said. The Fleshlumpeating Giant alone has a most 40 squackling whoppsy appetite. When Sophie asks how many children the giants will eat that night, the BFG says that they will eat many because one giant alone has a most enormous appetite and will therefore eat a lot of children. As long as children have answered suggesting that the words mean that it is a large appetite, they will receive the mark. d) Making a noise / running / charging [Line 52] 51 Always, the BFG said. Every night they is yelling at me as they go 52 bootling past. The other day they was yelling We is off to Mrs Sippi and Miss 53 Souri to guzzle them both! If you were to remove the word bootling the sentence suggests that the giants are going past. This means that bootling is an adverb describing how they are going past. As long as the children have said something that describes how the giants are moving then they will get the mark; i.e., being noisy, running, charging, bounding, etc. 8. All 3 of the following adjectives need to be mentioned to get the three marks; Large [Line 28] Craggy [Line 28] Blue [Line 28 and 56] 27 There s not a thing we can do, the BFG said. We is helpless as 28 horsefeathers. He sat down on a large craggy blue rock near the entrance to 29 his cave. He took Sophie from his pocket and put her beside him on the rock. The rock that they are sitting on is described in this extract and this clip shows the adjectives used to describe it.

5 9. Will accept either of the following reasons; Because they are from a different country and not educated (or because they have never been to school) Roald Dahl does not actually specify this, but it is something that the child has to derive from the information given. (Will also accept that it shows that they are different to humans) 10. At night (will also accept every night) [Line 51] 51 Always, the BFG said. Every night they is yelling at me as they go 52 bootling past. The other day they was yelling We is off to Mrs Sippi and Miss 53 Souri to guzzle them both! Here, Sophie asks the BFG if he always knows where the giants are going and he states that they go every night shouting to him as they go by. It also states earlier on that the giants pull the children out of their beds while they are sleeping, which suggests that they take the children at night. 11. [Verbs are action or doing words, and we can identify a verb by seeing if it makes sense with to before it, or with ing on the end. For example, with the verb run we have to run and running ] Will accept any 5 of the following: Came, Galloping, Is, Cried, Zippfizzing, Guzzle, Said, Popped, Hurried, Rolled, Peeping, Saw, Coming 1 Just then, there came a tremendous noise of galloping feet from outside the 2 cave. 3 What s that? Sophie cried. 4 That is all the giants zippfizzing off to another country to guzzle human 5 beans, the BFG said. He quickly popped Sophie into his waistcoat pocket, 6 then hurried to the cave entrance and rolled back the stone. 7 Sophie, peeping out of her spy hole, saw all nine of the fearsome giants 8 coming past at full gallop. Here are Lines 1 to 8, the highlighted words are all verbs used in this section. The words that the giants use (Zippfizzing and Guzzle) are more difficult to spot as they are not English but they both describe what someone is doing so they are still verbs.

6 12. Waistcoat [Line 5] This is the only piece of clothing that this extract mentions and therefore is the only answer we will accept. 4 That is all the giants zippfizzing off to another country to guzzle human 5 beans, the BFG said. He quickly popped Sophie into his waistcoat pocket, 6 then hurried to the cave entrance and rolled back the stone.
