didactic, moralistic The children’s story was “seemingly” simple—which means it was not actually simple. Instead, the story took some kind of “turn”—meaning that it changed in some way—and admonished “readers to always be honest.” That is, it took a turn by talking about morals or prescribing correct behavior. Magnanimous (generous) and beneficient (good, or doing good) are an incorrect pair. Garrulous (overly talkative, wordy) and futile (ineffective, useless) have no relationship.
