Final call for questions that need to be repeated. 01:36:33.474 --> 01:36:42.942 - All right, folks, take your score sheets up to our score keepers and prepare for our bonus round. 01:37:03.074 --> 01:37:10.856 - Okay, this is the final round, and we will be playing clips from the audiobooks of some of the Battle 01:37:10.856 --> 01:37:18.791 - of the Books books. There's only eight questions, so there may not be all. Some may be repeated. That's 01:37:18.791 --> 01:37:26.878 - up for you to determine. You do not need to have listened to the audiobook to know which books these are. 01:37:28.802 --> 01:37:36.754 - Unfortunately, I will say the audio in this room is not working. So what we're going to try to do is 01:37:36.754 --> 01:37:44.627 - play it out of this tiny speaker into this microphone. And hopefully, we'll all be able to hear it. 01:37:44.627 --> 01:37:52.579 - So we're going to need to be very, very silent as these clips are playing. And also, you're going to 01:37:52.579 --> 01:37:56.830 - write the title of the book rather than a letter, OK? 01:37:57.346 --> 01:38:05.144 - Now, if you write Earth Sea, then it follows that that's Wizard of Earth Sea, but try to be as specific 01:38:05.144 --> 01:38:12.643 - as you can. All right, here we go. Let's see how this works. I doubt they'll allow children running 01:38:12.643 --> 01:38:20.291 - around valuable equipment. She said offhandedly, their father's work is very important. Was everybody 01:38:20.291 --> 01:38:24.190 - able to hear that OK? We're going to play it again. 01:38:31.202 --> 01:38:40.061 - they'll allow children running around valuable equipment," she said offhandedly. Their father's work 01:38:40.061 --> 01:38:49.096 - is very important. Question two. Suddenly, I didn't feel like sending my letter anymore. With my hands 01:38:49.096 --> 01:38:57.955 - heavy as rocks, I took my letter and Shen's letter and walked over to my closet. I stuffed them both 01:38:57.955 --> 01:38:59.358 - way in the back 01:38:59.650 --> 01:39:07.668 - together with my C minus story and the rejection letter from the essay contest. Once again.

I stuffed them both way in the back together with my C minus story 01:39:24.018 --> 01:39:27.870 - and the rejection letter from the essay contest. 01:39:34.242 --> 01:39:45.385 - He would come back to stand under this sky, and they would meet again. He would make sure of it. He 01:39:45.385 --> 01:39:56.974 - turned and took a step towards home. That's number three, we're gonna listen to it again. He would come 01:39:56.974 --> 01:40:03.326 - back to stand under this sky, and they would meet again. 01:40:05.442 --> 01:40:30.105 - and took a step towards home. That guy has a great voice. Here's number four. Let's all silently listen. 01:40:30.105 --> 01:40:35.038 - More air than ocean. 01:40:35.842 --> 01:40:55.703 - The accommodations are solid if you happen to be a water dweller.
