There are several reasons Ender dislikes Eros. Which one is NOT one of them?

• The sense of isolation from others

• The sense of falling

• The sense of space proportion

• The sense of time passage

What is the simulator?

• A machine that artificially creates gravity on Eros

• A videogame that the teachers practice on to get to Ender's skill level

How has Mazer Rackham survived for seventy years?

• He was born special, which made him both very smart and almost immortal.

• His relatives were able to prepare a special gift for him twenty years earlier, which allowed him to live on.

• His psychology allowed him to will himself to live just long enough for someone special like Ender to come along.

• He traveled on a faster-than-light ship, which made him age slower than everyone else.

How did Mazer Rackham defeat the Second Invasion?

• He found the flagship at the front of the invasion and destroyed it with a clever trick.

• He destroyed the ship carrying the Bugger queen by figuring out which one was its focus.

• He traced the bugger ships back to their queen's ship, which was hiding behind another planet.

• He used biological weapons against the queen and her army, not unlike we use chemicals against ants or roaches today.

Who is Dr. Device?

• The "Little Doctor" is a dwarf who has been trained to help Ender aim his weapons in combat.

• It's a joke that was created to lighten the spirits of the people who work at the Command School.

• The person in charge of scientific technology at the Command School.

• A beam weapon that can destroy huge amounts of matter by weakening the bonds among molecules.

Who is NOT one of Ender’s squad leaders when he begins training with Mazer Rackham?

• Fly Molo

• Carn Carnby

What, according to Mazer, is one of Ender's advantages when he faces the bugger fleet?

• greater speed

• better armor

• superior weaponry

• greater numbers

“But as their trust in Ender as a commander grew their friendship…gradually disappeared…Ender was their teacher and commander, as distant from them as Mazer was from him.” Why must Ender be isolated from his friends?

• Because the adults want the children to all listen to them more than they listen to Ender.

• Because from the perspective of the adults, if he stopped to care about his friends, he would be unable to push ahead.

• Because Ender is a risk of becoming too much of a messiah figure and a danger to himself and others.

• Because he needed to be kept alone just in case the Earth leadership wanted to put Graff on trial.

What happens to Petra?

• Ender loses track of her in a battle and she gets lost to the bugger army. She barely escapes, but the close call makes her furious with Ender.

• Ender asks her to do too little and she shuts down in a crucial battle, leaving everyone frustrated with her performance.

• Ender pushes her into a position that is unwinnable, and as a result, she gets depressed and stops fighting forever.

• Ender challenges her with too much, and as a result she "breaks" and becomes far too cautious in her leadership style.
