Q. Charlie loves chocolate (duh), but why?

He can’t be bought
He really wants some chocolate
He knows that he will win the factory
200 pounds is not a lot of money
Q. Why is television such a terrible thing?
It turns kids blind
It takes up too much time and makes kids fat and lazy
It makes parents lazy
It kills the imagination
Q. Charlie’s family’s poverty is symbolized by what?
Cabbage soup
Snow and cold
The smell of chocolate
The Oompa-Loompa’s former risky living situation
Q. Why do Wonka, Grandpa Joe, and Charlie laugh all the time?
Because everything is funny
Because they’re happy
Because they are delirious from the heat of the factory
Because they want to work out the muscles in their stomachs
