Read the story, then answer.
Agent SchoolOn a rainy Saturday, Ravi's big sister Asha opened Agent School. Ravi sat at the laptop, where a locked vault filled the screen. To open it he had to type each secret word Asha said. "Carpet," whispered Asha. Ravi heard "car" and typed c, a, r at once. Buzz! The vault stayed shut, because he had missed the end of the word. Next time he waited for the whole word. When Asha said "butterfly," he cut it into chunks. He stretched out "lamp" to hear l, a, m, p. The word "said" sounds like sed, but it is spelled s, a, i, d, so he pictured it. At last he read each word back. Click! The vault swung open.
