Thank you Zara jenny, I got 100% correct! My question was "If the temperature never drops below 80°F, how did it snow?" And writing the answers out like that really helped.♥☻
For question 13 you can use mine "I was unsure of the word "buoyed" (p. 94). I then looked it up n a dictionary. It means to keep someone or something afloat. In the case of the book, it meant his pride was afloat in a non literal way." just change the wording a bit.
