Igcse English Worksheet Std. Vi Part 11: The Idea

Shahrukh Khan, a teacher, had the idea to line students up in reverse alphabetical order for lunch instead of the usual alphabetical order. Most of the students liked the idea, including Aishwarya Rai who usually had to stand at the back of the line. However, Amitabh Bachan thought it was an unnecessary and drastic change that could confuse the young students. Shahrukh dismissed Amitabh's concerns and said they only had strong minds in the class. When he polled the class, most of the hands raised in favor of the new system were in the front half of the line.
