COMPREHENSION

Read the following poem carefully.

The Worm

When the earth is turned in spring The worms are fat as anything.

And birds come flying all around To eat the worms right off the ground.

They like worms just as much as I Like bread and milk and apple pie.

And once, when I was very young, I put a worm right on my tongue.

I didn’t like the taste one bit, And so I did not swallow it.

But oh, it made my mother squirm Because she thought I ate that worm!

COMPREHENSION

Read the following passage carefully.

The dinosaurs were believed to have roamed the earth for nearly one hundred and thirty-five million years. Some were quite small, no bigger than a chicken. Others grew to be the biggest and fiercest animals living at that time. For example, the Tyrannosaurus Rex was over six metres tall. All the animals feared this predator. These dinosaurs ate other animals and harmed other dinosaurs. They truly ruled the earth at that time.

Then, quite suddenly, all the dinosaurs disappeared. Other animals such as reptiles, birds, and mammals survived. Research has not fully explained how the dinosaurs died. This is one of nature’s mysteries.

With the dinosaurs gone, the other animals no longer had to hide away. We can still see many animals today but we can only read about the dinosaurs in books.

COMPREHENSION

Read the following passage carefully.

Whenever a computer is switched on, it waits to be told what to do. Computers are not independent machines with brains . They are without any intelligence as we know it in human beings. They have no judgment to weigh up delicate situations.

A computer has to be told every single thing it does, from displaying a number on a visual display unit to finding faults in a space rocket. The set of instructions- which can extend for hundreds of pages when it is written down- is called a programme. The programme details instructions step by step. If anything is left out, the programme will go wrong, or simply refuse to run. Mistakes in programmes are called bugs, and finding them, or debugging, can be very difficult.

If we want to talk to a computer and write a programme for it to perform, we have to use a language it can understand.

There are many languages which are used for different purposes. Basic is the name of an all-purpose language which can be used with most micros. If you have a computer at school or home you will probably understand ____________________.

LANGUAGE ARTS

Subject and Predicate A sentence can be divided into two parts: i) the subject

ii) the predicate

The subject is the part of a sentence about which something is being said.

The subject usually answers the question who or what of the verb.

For example: The hungry cat stole the meat.

The verb in the sentence above is stole. Ask the question Who stole? or What stole?

The answer - The hungry cat.

The hungry cat is the subject of the sentence. This is what the sentence is speaking about.

The words stole the meat is the predicate of the sentence. It says something about the subject; it tells what the hungry

cat did.

To find the subject of a sentence, always ask the question who or what before the verb. The remaining part of the sentence NATION WORKBOOK

18

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7, 2021.

is the predicate.

Example: Question: Answer :

There are hundreds of covid patients in isolation.

Who are in isolation?

hundreds of covid patients.

Therefore hundreds of covid patients is the subject and the remaining words are in isolation) forms the predicate.

Example:

Open all the windows and doors.

Question:

Who is to open all the windows and doors?

Answer :

You. Therefore you is the subject even though it is not stated.

Open all the windows and doors is the predicate .

Note that the predicate of the sentence ALWAYS contains the verb.

Draw a single line under the subject and a double one under the predicate.

1. He selected the members of his team.

2. The exhausted volunteers cleaned the entire compound.

3. The cost of living has risen sharply in the last two years.

4. There are many people fleeing from Haiti.

5. Take him to the office.

6. Under the sprawling tree sat a happy group of teenagers.

7. Doubtful Barbadians have refused to take the vaccine.

8. That will be rejected by the committee.

9. Here is my topic for the essay competition.

10. At the sound of the final whistle, the supporters broke into celebrations.

11. Return that money to him!

12. Have you begun the next chapter?

USING CAPITAL LETTERS Whenever you write, it is your responsibility to make sure that what you write is clear. The use of specific marks makes it easier for readers to understand you writing.

Look at this example 4 587 239

:

= (4 million) + (five hundred thousands ) + ( eight tens of thousands ) + (seven thousand ) + ( two hundred) + (three tens ) + ( nine ones ) = (4x 1 000 000 ) + (5 x 100 000 ) +(8 x 10 000 ) + (7x 1000) + (2x 100) + (3x10)+( 9x1 ) = 4 000 000 + 500 000 + 80 000 + 7 000 + 200 + 30 + 9

Consecutive numbers: The term consecutive numbers does not really refer to a type of number but to the arrangement of the numbers. When numbers are arranged to follow each other at equal intervals, we say that they are arranged consecutively.

For example: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ..
