Answer 2

1. Honor story: She waved her magic wand and suddenly the frog turned into a handsome prince. 2. Love story: "Darling!" she whispered "I've waited all my life for you." 3. Detective story: Watson looked first at Holmes and then at the gun on the table. "I know who did it," he said calmly. 4. Fairy tale: The sheep was praising the wolf for his compassion when a passing fox warned, "The compassionate wolf is not what he appears." 5. Fable: The spaceship lowered itself into this red powdery planet which appeared to have people, no animals and no oxygen but which had a series of underground tunnels. 6. Ghost story: Slowly, he opened the door and looked inside the room. The portrait on the wall had changed. It was now a mass of tangled branches and blood. He let out a loud scream and ran down the stairs. 7. Science fiction: He woke to see a shadowy figure in medieval clothes walking across the room. He went cold and tried to call out, but could not speak.

In this case, number 6 matches with the ghost story because it includes elements such as a changing portrait, a loud scream, and a sense of fear or horror.
