Read the dialogue and complete the sentences

Liz: Would you like to complete a quiz, Tom?

Tom: OK, I like quizzes! What's the first question?

Liz: How many toes¹ does a person have?

Tom: Oh, that's easy. A person has two feet. And there are five toes on each foot. So, the answer is 10 toes.

Liz: Well done, Tom! Let's go to the next one. How many teeth does a person have?

Tom: Erm… Are there any variants?

Liz: Yes, there are three options: 31, 32 or 33 teeth.

Tom: Hmm… I think the answer is 32.

Liz: Yes! Well done! How many mice can you see in a dark room if they have 12 paws²?

Tom: OK, so each mouse has four paws. So, I can see three mice!

Liz: That's wrong because… you can't see anything in a dark room!

Tom: Hey, that's a tricky question!

Liz: Yeah, it is. Be attentive with the last one too. What colour of fur³ can a goose have?

Tom: Hmm… I know that some geese can be white and some can be black. Am I right?

Liz: No, geese and other birds don't have fur!

Tom: Oh… I wasn't attentive again.
