December 21st is Becky's birthday. When she gets home after school, she sees her parents sitting at
the table. On the table there is a birthday cake with fourteen candles. They say to her, "Happy birthday,
dear! We have a present for you, Becky. Go and look for it in your bedroom."
Becky runs quickly to her room. On her bed she sees a red box. She thinks that her present must be
in the box. She opens it. There is nothing but a card in it. The girl takes it out and reads, "Dear Becky, I'm your present. My first three letters are the same as in the word 'co
me'. My last two letters are the same as
in the word 'water'. My middle three letters are in the word 'put'. What am I?"
Becky thinks hard and soon smiles. Then she goes to the living room and shouts, "Aha, I know what
present it is. Thank you very much, Mum and Dad!But where is it?" Her mother answers, "Look at the
back of the card." Becky turns it over and reads, "Come and look for me in the study."
