Once upon a time, there was a sock named Socky who lived in a world full of random objects. One day, Socky was taking a stroll by the docks when he heard a knock on the door of a nearby clock. He went to investigate and found that it was a group of rocks trying to get inside the clock to see what was ticking.

Socky offered to help them, but they needed to find a key to unlock the door. So, they searched high and low until they found a block with a keyhole. They tried many keys, but none would fit. Suddenly, a flock of birds flew by and one dropped the key. They unlocked the door and found a room full of ticking gears and springs.

Socky and the rocks were amazed and decided to have a dance party inside the clock. They danced and sang until the clock struck 12, then they all tumbled out, exhausted and happy. From that day on, Socky and the rocks visited the clock every day to dance and have fun. The end.

2. How did Socky and the rocks find the key to unlock the clock?
3. What was inside the clock?
4. What happened when the clock struck 12?
5. Why did Socky and the rocks visit the clock every day after their first visit?
