I thought alto as well.

Yes, alto, but a slightly obscure question, because it requires specialised knowledge that would not necessarily be expected from a 10 year old.

Where is the question from?

It is to do with singing - an alto sings a bit lower than a soprano!

Sorry about the *** bit, fast trak - there are a very few papers that are banned from being mentioned on this site.

alto is one of four descriptors of standard vocal ranges, from highest to lowest - soprano, alto, tenor and bass. Soprano and alto voices are usually female, while tenor and bass are invariably male.

This is something that any child who sings in a choir would know but is not something that woud crop up outside a choir. Such is the random nature of VR, you could as easily get a question about plants DG

Not wishing to throw a spanner in the works but isn't "thou" also a possibility?
