Part B - Preguntas (Questions)

1. Who is the winner of this month’s contest?

From the text "Felicitaciones a Doris Delgado, ganadora del concurso de rimas del mes", "ganadora" means winner, so Doris Delgado is the winner.

2. What is her rhyme about?

The rhyme text: "Treinta días tiene septiembre... de veintiocho sólo hay uno... y los demás de treinta y uno" talks about the number of days in different months (September, April, June, November have 30; February has 28; others have 31).

3. Do you think ¿Cuántos días...? is an appropriate title for this rhyme? Why or why not?

The rhyme is about the number of days in each month (e.g., how many days September, April, etc., have). The title "¿Cuántos días...?" (How many days...?) directly relates to the content of the rhyme which focuses on the number of days per month.

Answer:

Doris Delgado
