in" or "complete" as "[fill in]". Understand "[fill in] question [number] on [something preferably held]" or "[fill in] question [number]" or "[fill in] answer [number] on [something preferably held]" or "[fill in] answer [number]" as filling the blanks.

Understand "answer question" as a mistake ("Try saying 'COMPLETE QUESTION 1' in order to fill in the blanks on the worksheet.").

Understand "write [text] on [packet]" or "write [text] in [text]" or "write answer" as a mistake ("You need to specify which question to answer. Instead, try saying 'COMPLETE QUESTION 1', for example.").

A mode is a kind of value. The modes are off, page-mode, help-mode, or response-mode.

Answer mode is a mode that varies. Answer mode is off. Current question is a number that varies.

Filling the blanks is an action applying to one number and one thing.

Check filling the blanks:

if the player does not hold a scriber, say "You have nothing to write with." instead;

if the second noun is not a packet, say "There are no questions to answer here." instead;

if the number understood is greater than 3, say "There aren't that many questions on the worksheet!" instead.

Carry out filling the blanks:

now current question is the number understood;

change the command prompt to " >>>";

if current question is:

-- 1: say "[/l]Where was your explorer born?";

-- 2: say "[/l]What was your explorer's most famous discovery?";

-- 3: say "[/l]What year did your explorer make his first voyage?";

now answer mode is response-mode.

Rule for supplying a missing second noun while filling the blanks:

if a packet (called the pad) is carried:

change the second noun to the pad;

otherwise if a packet (called the pad) is touchable:

try taking the pad;

change the second noun to the pad;

otherwise:

say "You will have to specify where to write your answer.".

After reading a command when answer mode is response-mode:

let pad be a random packet held by the player;

let N be indexed text;

let N be "[player's command]" in sentence case;

if N matches the regular expression "<Oo>cean", change N to "Ocean route to the Orient";

if N matches the regular expression "<Rr>oute", change N to "Ocean route to the Orient";

if N matches the regular expression "<Ss>ines", change N to "Sines";

if current question is:

-- 1: change birthplace of the pad to N;

-- 2: change discovery of the pad to N;

-- 3: change year of the pad to N;

say "[/l]On what page did you find that information?";

now the answer mode is page-mode;

now the pad is marked;

reject the player's command.

After reading a command when answer mode is page-mode:

let pad be a random packet held by the player;

let N be indexed text;

let N be "[player's command]" in sentence case;

if current question is:

-- 1: change birthplace-page of the pad to N;

-- 2: change discovery-page of the pad to N;

-- 3: change year-page of the pad to N;

say "[/l]You fill in the blanks for question [current question] with that information.";

change the command prompt to ">";

now the answer mode is off;

reject the player's command.
