Sure! Here’s a short story with a twist ending, using "EXAMPLE": --- Every year, the mysterious Professor Gray assigned his students a single, cryptic word for their final exam. This year, the word was "EXAMPLE." No one knew what to expect, but as the top student, Lisa was determined to solve the puzzle. During the week, students scrambled to find the meaning behind the word. Some wrote essays about leadership, others prepared presentations on historical figures, and one even composed a song. On the day of the final, Professor Gray paced the room. He asked each student, "What do you think is the perfect example?" Lisa stood up confidently. "The best example," she began, "is to lead by doing. I have spent this week volunteering, helping my classmates, and working to make this school a better place. My actions are my example." Professor Gray nodded, moving on. Each student gave their answer, and the professor took notes, face unreadable. After everyone finished, Professor Gray held up the exam paper and smiled slyly. "You all missed the best answer." The class leaned in. "The instructions said: 'Write the word EXAMPLE on your paper.' Whoever did that… passes. You were all overthinking it!" Stunned, everyone looked at their elaborate papers. Except for Max, who had slept through the instructions and, in a hurry, had simply written the word "EXAMPLE" and handed it in. Professor Gray winked at Max. "Good job, Max. Sometimes, the answer is right in front of you." --- The End.
