II. Identify the text structure of the following passages. Write cause and effect, sequence, compare and contrast, and
description on the blank.
__________________1. Wild Chimpanzees are rapidly disappearing. Some people are trying to solve this problem.
Otherwise, chimpanzees may one day exist only in zoos. People are trying to save the rain forests and woodlands where
the chimps live from being cut down. It will take many people working together to solve this problem.
___________________2. Chimpanzees and humans are alike in many ways. A baby chimp laughs when its mother tickles
it. After chimpanzees’ fight, they kiss and make up. When one chimpanzee comforts another, it gives it a hug or pat on a
back. There are of course, many ways that chimpanzees and humans. An adult male chimpanzee stands three or four feet
tall and weighs about 100 pounds. But a chimpanzee can lift more weight than a man who is six feet tall.
___________________3. Chimps live in groups and like each other a lot, but sometimes they fight. Because they don’t
want to stay angry at each other after a fight, they make up by holding a hand out to the other and kissing. They show that
they are sorry with pats and hugs. Then the anger goes away.
___________________4. A chimpanzee’s body is made for climbing and swinging in the trees. First, it uses its long arms
to reach a branch. Next, with it its flexible hands and feet, it grabs and hooks on the branch. Finally, it swings from that
branch to another branch of tree.
___________________5. It is fun to read about chimpanzees. All wild chimpanzees live in Africa. They live mostly in
thick rain forests and in woodlands. There are two types, or species of chimpanzees- the common chimpanzee and the
bonobo, also known as the pygmy chimpanzee.
__________________6. When a river receives a lot of extra water it may flood. During a flood there is plenty of water,
and most people wouldn’t think that dehydration was a serious risk, but flood waters are mostly polluted and not safe to
drink. People who drink the contaminated water may suffer from illnesses or diseases such as typhoid. You can prepare
for flooding by filling many containers with fresh clean drinking water. You can also use sandbags to protect your house
and to soak up the water. Be prepared and be safe.
___________________7. There are many reasons why people dance. Some people dance for fun, just because they enjoy
dancing. At other times, people dance for exercise or for weight loss, because dancing can really get your heart beating.
Also, sometimes people dance to try to get boyfriends or girlfriends. Some people think that good dancing is attractive.
There are many reasons why people dance.
___________________8. The surface of the Earth is divided into pieces called “tectonic plates.” These plates move.
When the plates rub against each other, they do not move smoothly. When the plates do not move smoothly, earthquakes
result. Some parts of the world get more earthquakes than other parts. The parts of the earth that get most earthquakes are
near the edges of these plates.
____________________9. The twist is a dance inspired by rock and roll music. To do the Twist, first stand with your feet
approximately shoulder width apart. The torso may be squared to the knees and hips, or turned at an angle so one foot is
farther forward than the other. Then, hold your arms out from your body, bent at your elbow. Next, rotate your hips, torso,
and legs as a single unit with your arms staying more or less stationary. Every so often lift one leg off of the floor for
styling. Now you’re doing the twist.
_____________________10. Sparklers and smoke bombs are my favorite kinds of fireworks. They are both safe and fun
but they are also quite different. After you light a smoke bomb, you should put it on the ground and run. Stand back and
watch it go! When you light a sparkler, however, you continue to hold it until it is done sparkling. You’re your hand
around and have an awesome time! They also burn differently. Sparklers create bright lights and sparks when you light
them, but smoke bombs create smoke in different colors. Remember kids: smoke bombs and sparklers are both extremely
dangerous and should only be used by professionals.
