Olympiad: music puzzles ★★★, sentence 8
The family of an instrument depends on how the sound is made: the saxophone is made of brass but is a woodwind because it uses a reed, and the flute is a woodwind because the player blows across an edge.
Who acts: family, sound, flute, player · What happens: depend, make, be, use, blow · To what, where: sound, saxophone, woodwind, reed, edge
