Fill the bucket with damp sand. Quickly turn the bucket upside down. Pull the bucket up carefully. The sand should stay in the shape of the bucket. Do the same thing with smaller buckets or cups. These will be the other parts of the castle. Use your hand to dig a moat around the castle. The sand in the moat will be very wet.

It sleeps in the shade when it is hot and in the warm sun when the weather is cold. Gorillas make beds from leaves. Leopards and monkeys sleep high up in the treetops where they are safe from their enemies. It is hard to tell when a fish is asleep. This is because a fish sleeps with its eyes open.

Today, each of the misprinted stamps is worth $5,000. For Mr. Robey, the misprinting of the stamps seems to have been a fortunate error. an annoying problem. a tragic mistake. a planned investment. A When we think of ants, we usually think of pesty little creatures that invade our picnics. However, some ants are very useful when it comes to finding fossils. ~ The western harvester ant collects rocks and fossils to pile in its anthill. Scientists are happy to have discovered such an easy place to find fossils.~ Because the ants bite and sting, the scientists use a long-handled shovel to remove the top part of the anthill. Then they sift through the dirt looking for fossils. Most of them are small bones from animals that lived in North America in the time of the dinosaur. Scientists interested in fossils probably consider western harvester ants annoying pests. able assistants. ignorant creatures. dangerous insects. B Marty and his brother Max often played tricks on their teachers. The boys were identical twins, so it was very difficult to tell them apart. Marty did very well in math, but was not a good speller. Max always won all the spelling contests, but did poorly on his math tests. One day when Max had a math test and Marty had a spelling test, the boys decided to switch places.

C Wouldn't it be nice if a computer could understand and obey your verbal command? You could say, "Turn off the lights!" and it would grant your wish. Computers that recognize speech do exist. A microphone on the computer picks up the sound waves of human speech. Then it stores the pattern of the sound in memory. Because every word has its own pattern, the computer can recognize and act on words in its vocabulary. This kind of technology still has a long way to go. It can only accept commands from one speaker, because every person has a different speech pattern. This passage tells mostly about a computer that can talk. the words that exist in a computer's vocabulary. a computer that recognizes speech. how a computer's microphone picks up sound waves of speech. C It is early in the morning in western Iowa, and a large group of cyclists are seen dipping their tires into the Sioux River.

The town was reborn as "Leadville," and swelled to 35,000 inhabitants. Millions of dollars worth of silver and lead were extracted from the mines before the town died again. About 1900, molybdenum was found in the area, and mining was resumed. This time the town was not renamed! Which metal was responsible for the third life of the mining town? lead gold silver molybdenum D Making a glass container involves many steps. First, the materials needed to make glass are combined in a large vat. Several materials are used, but the three key ingredients are sand, soda, and limestone. This mixture is then heated in a furnace until it liquifies. After the glass cools, it is shaped into the desired container. Blowing the glass is one method of shaping it. A glass-blower rolls the melted glass into a ball and attaches it to the end of a blow-pipe. Then he blows into the pipe as if he were blowing a bubble. He shapes the glass as he blows, and then uses special tools to complete the detail work. What happens first? The glass-blower blows into a pipe. The mixture is put into a furnace. The melted glass is allowed to cool. The glass-blower finishes his work with special tools. B Albert looked up from his book when the train came to an abrupt stop. He gazed out the window. The row houses seemed close enough to touch. When the train started up again, Albert realized that none of the buildings were familiar. He looked for a conductor, but the only person in the car was a woman reading a magazine. The woman noticed Albert's puzzled expression. "What's the matter, boy? Did you get on the wrong train?" she asked. Albert told the woman where he wanted to go. She explained that he had just missed his stop, and that he could soon board another train going back to the right station. What happened just before Albert was helped by the woman? He realized that he didn't recognize his surroundings. He boarded another train. The train came to a sudden stop. He looked for a conductor. D If you were to guess what ingredients go into the making of a bar of clean, sweet-smelling soap, you probably would not guess animal tallows or greases and oils. In reality however, soap is made by boiling these fats with alkalies. The process of boiling these ingredients is repeated five or six times. When the fats are saponified, or made into soap, the liquid is poured into another machine where it churns and thickens. As it churns, other ingredients like perfumes and colors are added to the mixture. Then the melted soap is ready to be made into bars or cakes. What happens before the fats are saponified? The fats are boiled with alkalies. Perfumes and colors are added. The soap is churned. The soap is made into bars and cakes. A A large predatory fish such as a tiger grouper usually feeds on small fish and shrimp. But when it needs a good cleaning, it depends on the same small sea animals. The tiger grouper goes to where it can find the brightly colored "cleaner fish." It lets them know it is there to be cleaned by striking strange poses. Then the cleaner fish carefully remove fungus and plant growth from the body of the large fish. The smaller fish are willing to do this because they eat all the material that they remove. When the large fish has had enough of the cleaning, it shakes vigorously. What happens right after the tiger grouper strikes a strange pose? The tiger grouper shakes vigorously. The cleaner fish remove fungus from the large fish's body. The tiger grouper goes where it can find the cleaner fish. The tiger grouper feeds on the smaller fish. B ~ Polly was frantic.~ Her English teacher had given her class an essay assignment. She usually did well on papers, but this one had to be written during class time. The class had been working on writing from personal experience, so the teacher wanted to see how they would do if their time was limited. Ten minutes had passed and Polly's paper was blank. Her teacher had stressed that something ordinary could be interesting. Polly decided to write about her first day of kindergarten. As she remembered  !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<her feelings of fear and excitement that day, ideas began to flow. Before she thought of an idea, Polly probably felt confident. frustrated. prepared. relieved. B The 1985 movie Amadeus was based on the life of the famous Austrian composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. He showed early musical aptitude, and began performing and writing music as a very young child. ~ He composed over one thousand pieces of music in his lifetime~ for opera, symphony orchestra, chorus, string quartet, and solo instrumental performer. Most of it was not published until after he died at the age of 35. He worked very quickly; ideas rushed into his head faster than he could write them down. He wrote three of his great symphonies in the space of 42 days in 1788. Which word could not be used to describe Mozart? versatile creative lazy gifted C Kevin's heart pounded as he listened to the announcer. He knew his name would be called soon. This was one of the most important parts of the competition. When his name was called, he dutifully walked to his desk. He knew hundreds of students were cheering him on, but his mind was full of memorized facts, so he didn't hear them. The first question was about the Bill of Rights. The announcer read it clearly, and Kevin wrote the answer with confidence. ~ He was also sure about his next three answers. When the fifth question was read, Kevin's heart sank.~ We can assume that Kevin was not listening when the fifth question was read. was unsure about his answer to the second question. was annoyed by the students' shouts of encouragement. did not feel confident about his answer to the fifth question. D What is your reaction when you see a strange insect in your house? Have you ever wondered about what it was named? ~ Some insects have very picturesque names indeed.~ For instance, there is the colorful greenbottle fly, the yellow woolybear moth, and the red admiral butterfly. Of course there is also the frightening assassin bug, the deathwatch beetle, and the burying beetle. Take courage though; it is hard to be afraid of an insect named a squashbug, a squint-eye spider, or a confused flower beetle! We can assume from reading the passage that you could be killed by an assassin bug. insects should be called by their scientific names. insects are sometimes given amusing names. all spiders are harmful. C It was as long as four city blocks and as tall as an eleven-story building. Many of its wealthy passengers enjoyed using the Turkish bath, swimming pool, squash court, and gymnasium. They also dined in its luxurious restaurants and French sidewalk cafes. It was called glorious and unsinkable. It was the Titanic. On April 14, 1912, this glorious and unsinkable ocean liner sank to the bottom of the Atlantic. Of the 2,200 passengers, only about 700 were saved. ~ The Titanic struck an iceberg after ignoring several warnings about a field of ice that blocked the ship's path.~ The last sentence suggests that the Titanic disaster was predicted by the press. might have been avoided. was completely unavoidable. is the worst in the history of ocean liners. B Ellen let out a deep sigh as she closed her book. She had been studying for three hours. Her big history exam was the next day, and the park had been a serene place to study. As she got up to leave, she spotted a four-leaf clover in the grass. Maybe it would bring her good luck on the exam! The next morning, Ellen saw John, a friend from her history class, walking slowly toward the classroom. ~ He looked very worried. He said he had spent a lot of time studying, but that essay exams weren't his strong point.~ Ellen was confident about the test, so she decided to give the clover to John. Ellen probably hoped that the clover would help John feel smarter. insecure. self-assured. safe. C Many people invest their money in the stock market. ~ They usually get advice about good investments from an expert in the field.~ However, Anthony Silverman of Minneapolis, Minnesota gets his guidance from a different source. He spreads out the stock listings in the newspaper and lets his dog walk on them. The first stock the dog's right paw touches is the stock Mr. Silverman buys. This may sound strange, but Mr. Silverman claims that his dog has been responsible for a lot of good decisions. He believes that he has found the best way to choose stock. What does "an expert in the field" mean in this passage? someone who works on a farm someone who knows a lot about investing in the stock market someone who uses pets to pick winning stocks someone who lives in Minneapolis B "You can't borrow my records because you are too careless!" His sister's words rang in Oliver's head. At the time, he thought his sister was being unfair and unreasonable. He thought she was refusing to let him borrow her records simply out of spite. But now he stared at the warped record. He had left it on the heater when he ran to answer the telephone. Then he had gone to the arcade with his friends and forgotten all about the record. ~ Now he realized that his sister had been right about his carelessness.~ Oliver knew that he'd have to replace his sister's record. He wondered if he would ever deserve her trust. We can tell that Oliver is afraid that his sister will discover the warped record. disappointed in his own neglectfulness. confident that his sister will forgive him if he replaces the record. not worried about what his parents will say about the record. B For thousands of years, people have enjoyed looking at the moon. Its changing shapes and brightness have inspired artists throughout the years. Many poems and songs have been written about the shining moon. But the moon is actually a ball of rough, gray rock. It doesn't glow or shine at all. Its light comes from the sun. The moon acts like a mirror and reflects the sun's light. The earth also reflects the sun's light. If you looked down at the earth from out in space, it would glow like the moon. ~ So, the artists really have the sun to thank for their inspiration.~ The last sentence suggests that the sun is more beautiful than the moon. moon is much smaller than the sun. sun is responsible for the moon's beauty. poets should have written about the sun. C Porcupines have been around for two and a half million years. Today they live in the forests of the United States and Canada. ~ It is often said that a porcupine can throw its poisonous quills to defend itself. There are two myths in this statement.~ First of all, a porcupine's quills are not poisonous. If they were, the species would not have survived so long because a porcupine often pricks itself with its own quills. Secondly, a porcupine does not throw its quills. A threatened porcupine thrashes its tail at its enemy and the quills remain stuck in the enemy's skin. From this passage we can tell that porcupines are often poisoned by their own quills. misunderstood by people. attacked by their mates. seen in the desert. B Topiary is the art of training plants to grow in special shapes. In amusement parks such as Disneyland, trees and shrubs are often seen in the shapes of animals. Plants are chosen with a certain shape in mind. For example, a short, rounded shrub might be used to make a pig. ~ The shrub is clipped into shape in a greenhouse until it is ready to be unveiled. Plant sculptures are also made with chicken wire.~ The chicken wire is shaped into an animal and then filled with moss. Fast growing vines are planted in the moss and then wound around the wire as they grow. From this paragraph we can conclude that there are at least two ways to grow plants in special shapes. topiary is only used in amusement parks. it takes a long time to shape a shrub into an animal. tall trees are never used in topiary. A People today seem to be sincerely concerned about their health. It is difficult to read through a newspaper or magazine, or watch television without being exposed to some new information about ways to reduce the risk of heart disease. A Florida heart specialist, Dr. Zacharia, has joined the fight against heart disease in a unique way. He offers discounts to his patients who take good health seriously. ~ For example, if a patient lowers his blood pressure or cholesterol level, Dr. Zacharia takes 5% off his bill.~ A substantial discount is also available to patients who stop smoking. From this passage, we can conclude that Dr. Zacharia does not encourage his patients to exercise regularly. is only motivated by making money. believes that high blood pressure contributes to heart problems. has never smoked a cigarette. C Justin was constantly dreaming up new schemes to raise money. When he was younger, he and his friends put on skits and charged admission. Then he had sold magazine subscriptions door to door. But Justin did not enjoy hard work. He wanted to find a way to earn a lot of money in a hurry. One day while he was reading the newspaper, Justin discovered what he thought was the ideal money-making opportunity. A casting director was looking for extras for a new movie. ~ To qualify, you had to be 12 to 15 years old.~ Justin thought he was perfect for the job until he read on. The extras were required to dye their hair green! We can tell that Justin would not mind dying his hair green to get the job. will probably go back to selling magazine subscriptions. is not more than 15 years old. is not very resourceful. C If you have ever had your temperature taken, you have probably noticed a silvery substance inside the thermometer. This substance is called mercury. Mercury comes from cinnabar, a red rock found near volcanoes. When the metal from this rock is melted, it becomes a liquid. But it is a very unusual liquid, because it is dry. You can actually stick your finger into mercury without getting it wet. If a puddle of mercury is pushed, it breaks up into many little rolling balls. ~ Although it can be very useful, mercury is a dangerous poison.~ The author suggests that mercury should not be touched. eaten. melted. heated. B Climbing trees has always been an adventure enjoyed by children. Many adults also enjoy climbing trees. Tree Climbers International is an organization that wants to establish tree climbing as a recognized sport. ~ The organization believes that climbing trees is good exercise. They also think it allows you to view nature from a new perspective.~ Methods of tree climbing used by tree surgeons are taught at a school in Atlanta. There are six levels of difficulty in tree climbing. They range from climbing a 25-foot tree to climbing a 350-foot tree. What might it mean to "view nature from a new perspective"? Nature will be more enjoyable if you exercise. Nature will look different from high up in a tree. Members of Tree Climbers International enjoy nature more often. You will enjoy nature more when tree climbing is a recognized sport. B In 1776, Father Junipero Serra founded the Mission San Juan Capistrano. It was California's seventh mission. A small adobe church was built at the site. In 1806, a large and elaborately decorated stone church was built at the mission. But six years later, an earthquake caused the tower and heavy roof to fall. Today, visitors can see this church as it looked after the earthquake. The mission has become famous because of the flock of swallows that live there. ~ The birds supposedly arrive every year on March 19th and leave on October 23rd.~ The last sentence suggests that it is believed that the birds come and go on these dates. the birds do not live at the mission. it is a recorded fact that the birds come and go on these dates. the birds living at the mission are not swallows. A Which animal is the fastest runner? It is difficult to measure precisely, but~ it is generally agreed that the cheetah is the fastest over short distances~--up to 600 yards. The cheetah can run about 60 miles an hour at this distance. The cheetah, sometimes called the hunting leopard, is found on the plains of East Africa. ~ The champion long distance runner is the pronghorn antelope of the Western United States.~ This graceful animal has been observed to travel at 35 miles an hour for distances up to four miles. What would happen if the cheetah and the antelope had a race? The race would probably end in a tie. The antelope would win. The cheetah would win. The outcome would depend on the length of the race. D The house was positively spotless. It looked as if it waited anxiously for an important visitor. Mrs. Newman looked quite satisfied as she inspected the parlor. ~ Then she squinted suspiciously at the painting on the wall. She walked over and adjusted its position by nudging the lower right corner. "There. Now everything's perfect."~ Just then, the doorbell rang. It seemed to interrupt the sterile stillness of the house. Mrs. Newman smoothed her dark hair and walked to the front door. She hesitated a bit and practiced smiling graciously. Then she opened the door. Which word would not be used to describe Mrs. Newman? conscientious nervous particular carefree D Bodie, California is about seven miles from the Nevada border. In the late 1800's, it was known as the "wickedest town in the west." Bodie was once the site of great excitement. ~ It started as a small gold mining camp, and by 1871 its population had grown to 10,000.~ During its active years, Bodie was like something out of an old western movie. Saloons, stage coach robberies, and greedy gold miners were all characteristic sights in the old western town. Today, Bodie is a ghost town and a tourist attraction. Only 100 of its original buildings are still standing. Bodie probably became a ghost town because the town was haunted by ghosts. there were too many robberies. the gold ran out. it was too wicked. C Have you ever seen a puddle of water in the road and then discovered it was not really there? Well, what you actually saw was a mirage. A mirage is a false image caused by the bending of light rays. If light travels through cool air to warmer air, it bends. ~ On a very hot day, the air closest to the ground is warmer than the air above. So, when light travels through the air, a shiny image of the sky sometimes appears on the hot pavement.~ This image looks like a pool of water. It seems to mysteriously disappear when you come closer to it. But it was never really there! If you see a mirage, you probably need glasses. are traveling on a hot day. have a wild imagination. are thirsty.
