Making Predictions in a Mystery: "Object Lesson"

Question 1 • FL-1001010-M/J Language Arts 1 A-CR

Alfred claimed that he was nowhere near the house when the butler was murdered. His was that he was across town at the grocery store when it happened. It turned out that the list of names on the floor was a. It had nothing to do with the crime.

Answer
A
suspect
B
clue
C
alibi
D
evidence

Explanation

An alibi is a claim that someone was somewhere else when a crime happened. Alfred says he was at the grocery store across town at the time of the murder, so his statement is an alibi. The list of names being unrelated to the crime does not change what Alfred’s claim is called.
