Answer 13

Driven by Anne’s imagination, Anne and her three friends act out the story of “Elaine.” As Anne is lying in the boat pretending to be dead, she notices the boat is sinking. Realizing she must do something quickly, she jumps to a bridge pile and waits to be rescued. Gilbert Blythe, her rescuer, tries to become her friend, but because he once called her “carrots,” she wants nothing to do with him. At the end, Marilla tells Anne she needs to be more sensible, but Matthew tells her to keep a little of her imagination.
