Vocabulary Quiz 2

Vocabulary Quiz 2 was a catastrophe. The ninth-grade Latin II class was utterly unprepared for this pop quiz, so much so that seven of the nine class members outright failed it. One knew he was failing it, and started filling in blanks with things like "DEATH BY STRANGULATION"; another took out frustrations by frantically scribbling out a list of known and invented nicknames for himself - "Andrew, Dyo, Maximus, Anonymous, Chris Farley, the freak, the guy with too much hair, the monster, Hans, Tuba, Hainey's Twin, Treetruncks". It was an ugly day for all, save the nerd that got the 93%.

Somehow, I managed to procure seven of the quizzes after grading; they were so bad almost no one wanted to keep them for study. I did manage to get to see the other two, though their tight-fisted owners wouldn't part with them; one was a C and the other was an F. They are ordered below from best to worst.
