my teacher wants 2 modifications on the project i did

import java.util.*;

but i dont know what he means with 2 modifcations


on a paper he gave us during the first day

it gave examples


'There are 3 levels in the game,with each round varies number of missed shots you have."
'There are spots that gives you extra rounds of shots."

Then it would make much more sense to ask him than to ask the forum. Especially since none of us here knows the original requirements, so we have no context against which to evaluate what might be meant by those modifications.
