IN EACH QUESTION BELOW, ONE WORD, WHICH IS IN CAPITALS, HAS HAD 3 LETTERS NEXT TO EACH OTHER TAKEN OUT.

THESE 3 LETTERS WILL MAKE ONE CORRECTLY SPELT WORD WITHOUT CHANGING THE ORDER.

WRITE THE 3 LETTER WORD IN THE BRACKETS.

EXAMPLE

The cat scratched him with his CS {LAW}

  1. It would be useful to take a SE sweatshirt { }

  2. What is the PR of that? { }

  3. They were asked to AD their mistakes. { }

  4. The FGE is broken { }

  5. Please play the CASTE { }

  6. The mist in the valley looked like SM rising. { }
