Allude vs Elude 🔒

With 7 sentences, this is a shorter quiz, and it pits allude against elude. To allude is to hint at something without naming it directly, and to elude is to escape or avoid. You sort them in prompts like "Stories about hard work ___ to reasons for being tired" and "The thief ___d the police by cutting across the street." Best suited to intermediate students, since the words look and sound so similar. A small clue baked into the quiz: elude and escape both start with e, which makes the avoiding word easier to remember.
