English Resource Description
In session 10 of "The Secret of Platform 13" reading comprehension, the King and Queen's journey to the Secret Cove is revealed to be motivated by the Queen's desire to be present for the prince's appearance and the King's wish to please her. Their initial reluctance to deploy the harpies to retrieve the prince stems from a preference for peaceful solutions, but they now resort to this last hope as desperation sets in. The phrase 'still as stone' is clarified to mean completely motionless, indicating a significant level of stillness. The widespread inquiries about Ben highlight his popularity and the genuine concern others have for him. Odge becomes aware of the harpies' arrival through the distinct and unpleasant odour they emit. Meanwhile, Mrs Trottle has plans to conceal Raymond at Mr Trottle's uncle's spacious residence in the Scottish Borders. The session concludes with a succinct summary task, challenging the reader to encapsulate the content of the session within a tight 50-word limit.
