Reel vs Spool #1 (permalink) Sun Feb 10, 2008 13:34 pm   Reel vs Spool		  
Hello,
I have a question for you :
Choose the best answer:We made a wooden toy with an empty cotton....and some glue.
A.roll B.reel C.glue D.spool
The correct naswer is ''B'' but I think spool is possibly correct because they have the same meaning. Please explain it

Yes, I think the given answer is wrong. To me, it is a 'spool' of thread, not a 'reel'.
