The growing stem was inserted into the bottle just after the pear had set, so the pear grew to full size inside the bottle. - Close enough. 1 point. The full explanation: The bottles are placed over pear buds when they are small, and are wired in place on the tree. The bottle is left in place for the entire growing season. When the pears are ripe, they are snipped off at the stems. dwarf dwarfs - No plurals accepted (I should have said, but that's still trying it on ). 1 point. . full stop - yes (period) , comma - yes ; semi-colon - yes : colon - yes ' prime - not one of the 14 standard punctuation marks " second - ditto ’ apostrophe - yes “ open quotation - yes ” close quotation - yes, counts as above ( open parenthesis - yes (brackets) ) close parenthesis - yes, counts as above ! exclamation mark - yes ? question mark - yes … ellipsis - yes & ampersand - not one of the 14 % percent - not one of the 14 * asterisk - not one of the 14 @ at - not one of the 14 - 10 points Lettuce - yes. 1 point sock shoe slipper - 3 points |
