II. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions. 5 Marks
Argentina is a country that has absolutely fascinating animal life, totally different from anything found
anywhere else in South America. As nearly the whole country is composed of the vast grasslands called
the pampas, naturally all the creatures are adapted to life on these open plains

The pampas in the Argenine are remarkably flat; standing at one point you you can see the great
grassland stretching away as smooth as a table top until it mingles with the sky on the horizon.

Hunting for animals in this open grassland is not quite as easy as it might seems at first. To begin with,
most of them live in holes and only venture out at night. Secondly there is very little cover in form of
bushes or trees so the hunted animals can usually spot the hunters some way off.

a. Provide some synonyms for ‘grasslands ‘

b. Describe the grasslands in your own words.
c. Why is ‘hunting for animals’ not very simple there?
d. Do you think hunting animals is a sport?
