Dont eat just before going to bed! my mother
used to tell me. You might get a nightmare. How right
she was. I never believed her until it happened to me.
It was on a night when i felt hungry just as i was
about to go to bed. So I made myself a peanut butter
sandwich and a large cold glass of milk. After consuming
them i went to bed.
Soon i drifted off into a troubled sleep. I dreamt that
i was with a group of people looking dor an old woman. I
was not sure why we were looking for her but we all seemed
afraid of her. Somehow we had to find her. So there i was
searching high and low for her in frightful places I had
never been before. Sometimes I seemed to be flying while at
other times I seemed unable to move. The whole atmosphere
was one of fear, like a dreadful horror-movie in which i was
a victim.
After some searching I entered a darkened room and
saw a figure sleeping on a bed. As I got nearer the figure
suddenly threw away the blanket, got up and started at me.
It was an ugly old woman with shiny golden teeth. She
raised her claw-like fingers and walked towards me.
I wanted to run but was unable to. I tried to scream
but found that I could not. In horror I struggled and
struggled to get away from the frightful woman.
The next moment i gave a muffed yell and found myself
painting on my bed. My goodness, what a horrible
nightmare it was! For a minute I laid on my bed not daring
to close my eyes for fear of failing asleep again and
continuing the nightmare. Then i sat uo on my bed until the
horrible feeling passed. From then on I never eat just before
going to sleep.

Fireflies are just name. They are actually very cool insects.
And they are not even flies, they are beetles. They have a
way of sending out light signals every now and then. If you
see them at night on a tree, you might think it is a brightly lit
tree. That is the kind of light these fireflies produce.

Fireflies have transparent abdomen. There are cells of

crystal or chemical substances inside it which get broken
down by enzymes. Some energy is released in the form of
light. However, the light they send out does not have heat.
The light is cold.

The fireflies send out light signals at fixed intervals. And the
purpose behind it is to attract beetles for mating. But one
fireflys signal is different from anothers, depending on its
sex and the type of family it belongs to. If a firefly sends a
signal at a fixed interval but gets a response either too soon
or too late, it will ignore the signal. It is like a perfect dance
sequence. If you are faster or slower than your partner, the
dance fails.

27. What is the purpose of writing the text?

A. To describe about fireflies in general.
B. To inform about certain kind of fireflies.
C. To attract peoples attention on fireflies.
D. To tell people the process of animal mating.
