READ THE PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT FOLLOW.


Max reads more than anyone he knows. He loves to read during all of his free time. His
friends tease him because he would rather read than play video games, but his parents and
his teachers are proud of him. They say reading is important, and it will help him learn about
the world around him. They also tell him that it is a good habit to read on a regular basis.
One day, Max was reading a magazine article about volcanoes. He told his friends all about
volcanoes and what causes them to erupt. The very next week, his class was assigned a
science project about volcanoes. Guess, who everyone wanted in their project group? Max's
friends weren't teasing him anymore.
Max ended up being in a group with Liz, Anna and Josh. The assignment was to create a
poster board with information about volcanoes and to build a volcano model.
Max made copies of the magazine article about volcanoes so his project partners could read
about them too. They also went to the library to look for more information about volcanoes.
The group met at Anna's house that night to organise the information and decide what they
wanted to put on the poster board. They all asked Max what he thought was most important.
Then they decided on the following together.
What causes volcanoes to erupt? The release of pressure when magma rises up through
cracks in the Earth's crust.
How do volcanoes form? Lava from eruptions cools and forms new crust. The crust builds
up after several eruptions to form a volcano. How hot is lava? Lava can get as hot as 1,165
Fahrenheit.
The next night, they met at Josh's house to build their volcano. They used cardboard and
modeling clay. First, they made a volcano shape with the cardboard, and then they covered

r
the shape in brown and red clay. The red was lava flowing down the volcano. They also

ne
attached red clay to the top of the volcano to make it look like it was erupting.
The volcano looked great. Max, Liz, Anna and Josh were very proud of their hard work.

ai
When they turned in their project, their teacher was proud too. Thanks to Max's good habit,
they earned an A+ on both parts of the project.
What is the passage about?
Tr
d
A How to make volcanoes.

pi

B How to be a teacher's favourite.

C How the good habit of reading can be beneficial.

One day, a ragged beggar was creeping along from house to house. He carried an old
wallet in his hand and was asking at every door for a few cents to buy something to eat. As
he was grumbling at his misfortune, he kept wondering why it was that folks who had so
much money were never satisfied but were always wanting more. "Here," he said, "is the
master of this house–I know him well. He was always a good businessman, and he made
himself wondrously rich a long time ago. Had he been wise, he would have stopped then.
He would have turned over his business to someone else, and then he could have spent the
rest of his life in ease. But what did he do instead? He built ships and sent them to sea to
trade with foreign lands. He thought he would get mountains of gold." "But there were great
storms on the water; his ships were wrecked, and his riches were swallowed up by the
waves. Now, all his hopes lie at the bottom of the sea, and his great wealth has vanished."
"There are many such cases. Men seem to never be satisfied unless they gain the whole
world."
"As for me, if I had only enough to eat and to buy clothing, I would not want anything more."
Just at that moment, Fortune came down the street. She saw the beggar and stopped. She
said to him:
"Listen! I have long wished to help you. Hold your wallet, and I will pour this gold into it, but
only on this condition: all that falls into the wallet shall be pure gold, but every piece that
falls upon the ground shall become dust. Do you understand?"
"Oh, yes, I understand," said the beggar.
"Then be careful," said Fortune. "Your wallet is old, so, do not load it too heavily." The
beggar was so glad that he could hardly wait. He quickly opened his wallet, and a stream of
yellow gold poured into it. The wallet grew heavy.
"Is that enough?" asked Fortune.
"Not yet."
"Isn't it cracking?"

r
"Never fear."

ne
The beggar's hands began to tremble. Ah, if the gold would only pour forever!
"You are the richest man in the world now!"

ai
"Just a little more, add just a handful or two."
"There, it's full. The wallet will burst."
"But it will hold just a little more!"
Tr
Another piece was added, and the wallet split. The treasure fell upon the ground and turned
d
to dust. The beggar had nothing now but his empty wallet, and it was torn from top to
bottom. He was as poor as before.
