 Cactus, common name for the family comprising a
peculiar group of spiny, fleshy plants native to America. The
family contains about 1650 species, most of which are adapted to
arid climates. The fruits of cacti are important sources of food
and drink in many areas to which they are native. Because cacti
require little care and exhibit bizzare form, they are popular for
home cultivation and are coming under increasing pressure as a
result. More than 17 kinds of cacti now face extinction because
of plundering by avid collectors and professional poachers,
especially in the southwestern United States and nothern Mexico.
Cactus plants usually consist of spiny stems and roots.
Leaves are greatly reduced or entirely absent. Only in two genera
are fully formed leaves present. The stems of cacti are usually
swollen and fleshy, adapted to water storage, and many are
shaped in ways that cause rain to flow directly to the root system
for absorbtion. The roots form extensive system near the soil
surface, assuring that a given plant will absorb the maximum
amount of water from a wide area; plants in deserts are usually
widely spaced.
The flowers of cacti are often large and showy and
occur singly rather than in clusters of several flowers. The
perianth ( floral tube ) does not consist of sharply differentiated
sepals and petals, but rather of series of bracts (modified leaves),
which gradually grade into sepals and finally into showy petals.
The flowers have many stamens; the ovary inferior and fused to
the perianth. The fruits are often brightly colored and fleshy.
21. “...They are popular for home cultivation and ...” ( the first
paragraph )
The underlined word means....
A. Famous C. Unusual
B. Strange D. Special

A Fox and a Cat
One day, a cat and a fox were having a conversation. The fox,
who was a conceited creature, boasted how clever she was.
“Why, I know at least a hundred tricks to get away from our
mutual enemies, the dogs,” she said.
“I know only one trick to get away from dogs,” said the cat.
“You should teach me some of yours!”
“Well, maybe someday, when I have the time, I may teach you a
few of the simpler ones”, replied the fox airily.
Just then they heard the barking of a pack of dogs in the distance.
The barking grew louder and louder – the dogs were coming in
their direction! At once the cat ran to the nearest tree and climbed
into its branches, well out of reach of any dog. “This is the trick I
told you about, the only one I know”, said the cat. “Which one of
your hundred tricks are you going to use?”
The fox sat silently under the tree, wondering which trick she
should use. Before she could make up her mind, the dogs arrived.
They fell upon the fox and tore her to pieces.

months without water and will rot if it is given too much. Allow

Jellyfish are not really fish. They are invertebrate animals. This
means that unlike fish or people, they have no backbones. In fact,
they have no bones at all. Jellyfish have stomachs and mouths,
but no heads. They have nervous systems for sensing the world
around them, but no brains. They are made almost entirely of
water, which is why you can look through them.
Some jellyfish can glow in darkness by making their own light.
The light is made by a chemical reaction inside the jellyfish.
Scientists believe jellyfish glow for several reasons. For example,
they may glow to scare away predators or to attract animals they
like to eat.
Most jellyfish live in salt water, apart from a few types that live
in fresh water. Jellyfish are found in oceans and seas all over the
world. They live in warm, tropical seas and in icy waters near the
North and South poles.

The Lion and The Mouse
Once upon a time, when a lion was asleep, a little mouse
began running up and down upon him, this soon awoke the lion
who placed his huge paw upon the mouse, and opened his big
jaws to swallow him. “Pardon, O King”, cried the little mouse “
Forgive me this time. I shall never forget it: who knows I may be
able to do you a good turn some of these days “ The lion was so
tickled at the idea of the mouse being able to help him. Then he
lifted up his paw and let him go.
One day the Lion was caught in a trap. Some hunters who
wanted to carry him alive to the King, tied him a tree while they
went in search of a wagon to carry him. Just then the little mouse
happened to pass by and see the sad plight in which the Lion was.

gone to school.
Putra was too small to help his mother, and she was too
frightened to speak sensibly to him. But he ran to the neighbour’s
house and asked his neighbor to come and help his mother. The
neighbor soon put out the fire and took Putra’s mother to the

BLUE WHALE
The largest animal alive is the blue whale. Fully grown , these
great creatures reach length of over 30 meters and weigh as much
as twenty four large elephants, or more than 1,500 men. The
heart of a blue whale is more than a meter in diameter.
The blue whale is not a fish, even though it depends its entire life
in the sea. Whales are mammals, just like us. A mother whale
gives birth to a live baby whale, not an egg. She feeds her baby
with her own milk. While fish are clod-blooded, whales are
warm-blooded, and the have lungs and breathe air, like us.
For all its size, a blue whale feeds mainly on tiny shrimps. It is
harmless to man. Unfortunately for the blue whales, men are not
harmless to them. So many blue whales are hunted and killed that
very few of these magnificent animals are now left alive.

 Cactus, common name for the family comprising a
peculiar group of spiny, fleshy plants native to America. The
family contains about 1650 species, most of which are adapted to
arid climates. The fruits of cacti are important sources of food
and drink in many areas to which they are native. Because cacti
require little care and exhibit bizzare form, they are popular for
home cultivation and are coming under increasing pressure as a
result. More than 17 kinds of cacti now face extinction because
of plundering by avid collectors and professional poachers,
especially in the southwestern United States and nothern Mexico.
Cactus plants usually consist of spiny stems and roots.
Leaves are greatly reduced or entirely absent. Only in two genera
are fully formed leaves present. The stems of cacti are usually
swollen and fleshy, adapted to water storage, and many are
shaped in ways that cause rain to flow directly to the root system
for absorbtion. The roots form extensive system near the soil
surface, assuring that a given plant will absorb the maximum
amount of water from a wide area; plants in deserts are usually
widely spaced.
The flowers of cacti are often large and showy and
occur singly rather than in clusters of several flowers. The
perianth ( floral tube ) does not consist of sharply differentiated
sepals and petals, but rather of series of bracts (modified leaves),
which gradually grade into sepals and finally into showy petals.
The flowers have many stamens; the ovary inferior and fused to
the perianth. The fruits are often brightly colored and fleshy.

paragraph )
The underlined word means....
A. Famous C. Unusual
B. Strange D. Special

Our world has more than one and a half million kinds of plants
and animals. Unfortunately, we have lost a great many of those
species. We can find only a small number of certain species of
animal because people have been killing them. As the population
grows, more species are lost and, many forest are destroyed.
People build dam which cause the loss of certain kinds of fish.
People build wide roads, field, and big buildings which cuts some
animals off from their sources of food. Factories throw away
waste into rivers, lake, seas, and ocean. The waste contain
poison. The water becomes polluted. Some Asian countries have
built National Park and Wild Life reserves to protect the animal
species. In other countries however, these things are difficult to
do because the people there still need to hunt these animals for
food. We can help our government by obeying hunting, fishing,
wild and growing new plants to provide food and shelter for wild
life.
72. What do some countries build to protect animals ?

How to Clean Dirty Floors
1. Give the floor its daily brush, before you mop it.
2. Check to see whether there are any stubborn marks on your
floor that your daily brush cannot remove. Spray all with
cleaner on them and scrub them with a scrubbing brush.
3. Fill your bucket with hot water mixed with the quantity of
floor cleaner specified on the label
4. Mop backwards rather than forwards so you don’t step your
cleanly mopped floor.
5. Empty and refill your water bucket as soon as the water starts
to become dirty and to avoid getting dirty streaks on the floor.
6. If you are mopping a room that is used frequently, such as the
kitchen, you may not want to wait for the floor to dry. Just
use an old towel, stand on it with both feet and shuffle across
the floor until it is dry.

Jellyfish are not really fish. They are invertebrate animals. This
means that unlike fish or people, they have no backbones. In fact,
they have no bones at all.
Jellyfish have stomachs and mouths, but no heads. They
have nervous systems for sensing the world around them, but no
brains. They are made almost entirely of water, which is why you
can look through them.
Some jellyfish can glow in darkness by making their own
light. The light is made by a chemical reaction inside the
jellyfish. Scientists believe jellyfish glow for several reasons. For
example, they may glow to scare away predators or to attract
animals they like to eat.
Most jellyfish live in salt water, apart from a few types
that live in fresh water. Jellyfish are found in oceans and seas all
over the world. They live in warm, tropical seas and in icy waters
near the North and South poles.

An amphibian is an animal that has moist, hairless skin.
Amphibians are cold-blooded, which means they cannot make
their own body heat. They get warm in the sun and cool off in the
shade. The three main groups of amphibians are frogs and toads,
salamanders, and caecilians. All amphibians have backbones.
The three kinds of amphibians look very different from each
other. Frogs and toads have legs but do not have tails.
Salamanders have short legs and long bodies ending in tails.
Caecilians do not have any legs. They look a lot like big
earthworms.
There are more than 4,000 different species (kinds) of
amphibians in the world. Nearly all amphibian species are frogs
or toads. Toads differ from frogs in the roughness of their skin.
Toads have bumpy skin, and frogs have smooth skin. Toads also
have shorter legs than frogs.
The biggest amphibian found on Earth is the Japanese
giant salamander. It can grow to be longer than 5 feet (1.5
meters). Tiny frogs, such as the gold frog, are only about 0.4 inch
(about 1 centimeter) long.
