It’s day 4 of our Advent calendar and we have a verbal reasoning challenge for you.

At Better Tuition, Urmston, we have been trying to read this weather forecast but each sentence has been shuffled. What’s more, an extra word has been added to each sentence! Can you unshuffle the sentences and identify the extra word?

The shuffled sentence can be rearranged to make the sentence “The weather will be warm tomorrow.”

The extra word is ‘heat’.

1. month be soon December will a cold

2. frost will a there be thick ice

3. below fall to temperatures freezing yesterday will

4. warm cold will you your need clothes

5. of is a snow there possibility balls

6. will up coldest away north it be

7. slightly the be south will gone warmer

8. week only get next it colder will

9. good conditions be were flying particularly will

10. sleigh in our for look above Santa’s
