Test 2 · ★★ · Pushes and pulls all around us

What would happen if you tried to walk on perfectly slippery ice?

Mova's choice: option 1 · The right answer: option 1 · right ✓ · Who acts: you · What happens: happen, try, walk · To what, where: slippery ice

This is test 2 · ★★ of lesson 5 «Pushes and pulls all around us» of the physics course of Mova's primary school. The page gives the question's syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause, then the 4 options as the student saw them, each with its tree and pragmatics. Every text is parsed by Mova itself. How the student answered it, with the score of every option and why: the test at school.

One row per clause the reader finds. «not said here»: a role filled from the clause above. «roles by»: a VerbNet class and frame when one fits the verb, else the reader's rules on the tree.
