First, let's understand what a living statue is. A living statue is a performer who poses as a statue, often painted in metallic colors, and remains still for extended periods of time, giving the illusion of being a statue brought to life.
Now let's analyze each sentence:
1. "I'm wearing three T-shirts under my costume - it's really cold."
This sentence is not something a living statue would say because they cannot speak or express their discomfort.
2. "I sometimes drop a ball when I try with six."
This sentence is not something a living statue would say as they do not engage in ball-related activities or mention their interaction with props.
3. "A little girl started crying when she saw me."
This sentence is possible for a living statue to say. Some people, especially young children, may get scared or shocked when they see a living statue for the first time. So, this sentence could be ticked with a checkmark ().
4. "A bird landed on my head today."
This sentence is also possible for a living statue to say. Since living statues remain still, birds or other animals may land on them occasionally. So, this sentence could also be ticked with a checkmark ().
5. "Sometimes I stand on one leg and do it with three knives."
This sentence is not something a living statue would say as they do not talk about their actions or performances.
6. "I'm going for a sauna now to wash the paint off."
This sentence is not something a living statue would say as they do not have the ability to leave their position or go for a sauna.
Based on our analysis, we can tick () sentences 3 and 4 as the ones a living statue probably says.
