उत्तर

An important feature of the half-yearly report was the questioning session scheduled at the end of the programme. Miss Phillips, Miss Dale Evans and Mr. Weston were chosen at random to form the panel and were asked questions about the reports by the students of the school. While the other two were often caught off guard by the questioning and were struggling to answer them, Miss Phillips answered her questions with honesty and authority. She proved to be well-informed and coolest among the three. She managed to skillfully intervene and tackle some of the questions posted to the other teachers without causing them embarrassment. When Mr. Weston couldn’t effectively respond to Fernman’s skilful questioning and Denham’s blunt criticism, Miss Phillips stepped in and successfully defended the need for PT class by outwitting Denham who eventually admitted defeat.
