Read
the texts and answer the questions.
There are about 20,000
species, or kinds of bees. Bees live everywhere in the world except on high
mountains, in the Arctic and Antarctic, and on some small islands in the ocean.
Some bees are as small
as 0.08 inch (2 millimeters). Some bees are as big as 1.6 inches (4
centimeters). Bees come in many colors—black, gray, yellow, red, green, or
blue. Most bees live alone. They are called solitary bees. Some bees live in
groups called colonies. They are social bees.
1. What does the text mostly tell you about?
2. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?
Killer bees are a cross
between African honey bees and European honey bees, the main kind of honey bee
in the United States. Researchers brought African bees to South America. The
bees escaped in the 1970s and mated with European honey bees. The killer bees
they produced will attack in swarms. They will sting and kill large animals and
people.
Killer bees spread north
into Central America and the southern United States. Beekeepers worry that the
killer bees could harm their honey bees and threaten the important work that
honey bees do.
3. What is the text about?
4. The second paragraph is talking about……
This is Cassa. He is the male chimpanzee that tended
quiet and loner. Cassa could be recognized by seeing the color of his silvery
hair, slender body and non symmetrical mouth.
This one is Campo, a female chimpanzee. She is the wife
of Cassa and mother of Monica. Campo is friendly enough with humankind. Don’t
extend the hands to Campo because she will extend her hands too. That means she
is asking for food. Campo could be recognized from her thin arms hair, with the
scar on left ears under the left eyes and nostrils.
As the day increases the two of them will not easily be
found because they hide on the tamarind tree. Try to find them beyond the tree.

What
is the second paragraph about?
It is possible that we
cannot bring a dictionary with us somewhere, but we have to know the meaning of
certain word from the text we are reading. In this situation the ability to
know the meaning of the word is very important.

What
is passage talking about?
A
flood is an overflow of an
expanse of water that submerges land. The EU Floods directive defines a flood as a
temporary covering by water of land not normally covered by water.]In
the sense of "flowing water", the word may also be applied to the
inflow of the tide. Flooding may result
from the volume of water within a body of water, such as a river or lake, which overflows or
breaks levees, with the result that some of the water escapes its usual
boundaries.
While
the size of a lake or other body of water will vary with seasonal changes in
precipitation and snow melt, it is not a significant flood unless such escapes
of water endanger land areas used by man like a village, city or other
inhabited area.
Floods
can also occur in rivers, when flow exceeds the capacity of the river channel,
particularly at bends or meanders. Floods often cause damage to homes and
businesses if they are placed in natural flood plains of rivers. While flood
damage can be virtually eliminated by moving away from rivers and other bodies
of water, since time out of mind, people have lived and worked by the water to
seek sustenance and capitalize on the gains of cheap and easy travel and
commerce by being near water. That humans continue to inhabit areas threatened
by flood damage is evidence that the perceived value of living near the water
exceeds the cost of repeated periodic flooding.
