KD 3 : REPORT TEXT
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 eclipse is an astronomical event that occurs when one celestial object moves into the shadow
of another. The term is most often used to describe either a solar eclipse, when the Moon's
shadow crosses the Earth's surface, or a lunar eclipse, when the Moon moves into the shadow of
Earth.
Eclipses may occur when the Earth and Moon are aligned with the Sun, and the shadow of one
body cast by the Sun falls on the other. So at New Moon (or rather Dark Moon), when the Moon
is in conjunction with the Sun, the Moon may pass in front of the Sun as seen from a narrow
region on the surface of the Earth and cause a solar eclipse. At Full Moon, when the Moon is in
opposition to the Sun, the Moon may pass through the shadow of the Earth, and a lunar eclipse is
visible from the night half of the Earth.
An eclipse does not happen at every New or Full Moon, because the plane of the orbit of the
Moon around the Earth is tilted with respect to the plane of the orbit of the Earth around the Sun,
so as seen from the Earth, when the Moon is nearest to the Sun (New Moon) or at largest
distance (Full Moon), the three bodies usually are not exactly on the same line.
4. When does lunar eclipse happen?
A. In the morning
B. In the afternoon
C. In the evening
D. In the midday

5. What is the main idea of the third paragraph?

A. We can see the surface of the Moon from the Earth
B. The Sun is the biggest planet in our solar system
C. An eclipse never happens at New or Full Moon
D. The Sun and the Moon rotate on the same line

6. What will happen if the Moon's shadow crosses the Earth's surface? There will be ….
A. A lunar eclipse
B. Solar eclipse
C. New moon
D. Full moon

Butterflies are a type of insect with large and often colorful wings. They start out as eggs. They
lay their eggs on leaves. The eggs hatch into caterpillars with tabular body. The caterpillar eats
leaves, beds, or flowers of plants.

When a caterpillar is full sized, it goes into another stage called chrysalis. Caterpillars attach
themselves to something solid before becoming a chrysalis. The caterpillar inside the chrysalis
changes into a butterfly. Some butterflies make the change in one week. Some others take years
to change.

When the change is complete, the adult butterfly splits the chrysalis. The insect unfolds its wings
and pumps blood and air into then. It spreads out the wings until they become dry and harder.
The beautiful butterfly then flies to get nectar from flowers. Most butterflies live only for one or
two weeks.

SNAKES
Snakes are reptiles (cold-blooded creatures). They belong to the same group as lizards (the
scaled group, Squamata) but from a sub-group of their own (Serpentes).

Snakes have two legs but a long time ago they had claws to help them slither along. Snakes are
not slimy. They are covered in scales which are just bumps on the skin. Their skin is hard and
glossy to reduce friction as the snake slithers along the ground.

Snakes often sun bathe on rocks in the warm weather. This is because snakes are cold-blooded,
they need the sun's warmth to heat their bodies up. Most snakes live in the country. Some types
of snakes live in trees, some live in water, but most live on the ground in deserted rabbit
burrows, in thick, long grass and in old logs.

A snake's diet usually consists of frogs, lizards, and mice and other snakes. The Anaconda can
eat small crocodiles and even bears. Many snakes protect themselves with their fangs. Some
snakes are protected by scaring their enemies away like Cobra. The flying snakes glide away
from danger. Their ribs spread apart and the skin stretches out. Its technique is just like the sugar
gliders.
14. Since the snakes are cold-blooded, they ....
A. Like sucking the cool blood
B. Avoid sun-bathing to their skins
C. Never sun bathe in the warm weather
D. Live on the ground in deserted burrows
E. Require the sun's warmth to heat their bodies

15. We know from the text that snakes ....

A. Do not have claws
B. Do not like sunlight
C. Have two legs and claws
D. Use their legs to climb the tree
E. Use their claws to slither along the ground

16. How do flying snakes protect themselves?

Napoleon is a favorite fish for divers in many regions of the world. The fish can instantly be
recognized by its size, color and shape. It is one of the largest reef fish in the world. They can
grow up to 230 cm and weigh 190 kg. They have fleshy lips and a hump over the head that is
similar to a napoleon hat. The Hump becomes more prominent with age.

Colors vary with age and sex. Males range from a bright electric blue to green or purplish blue.
Mature males develop a black stripe along the sides, blue spots on their body scales, and blue
scribbles on the head. Juveniles can be identified by their pale greenish color and two black lines
running behind the eye. Females, both old and young, are red-orange on the upper parts of their
bodies and red-orange to white yellow.

Napoleon fish are carnivorous and eat during the day. They can be seen feasting on shellfish,
other fish, sea stars, sea urchins and crabs, crushing the shells to get the animal within. They also
crush large chunks of dead coral rubble with peg-like teeth to feed on the burrowing mussels and
worms.

Pairs spawn together as part of a larger mating group that may consist of over 100 individuals.
The planktonic eggs are released into the water, and once the larvae have hatched they will settle
out on the substrate. Adult females are able to change sex but the triggers for this development
are not yet known.

The Napoleon is mainly found on coral reef edges and drop-offs. They move into shallow bays
during the day to feed, and tend to move into deeper waters as they grow older and large. Adults,
therefore, are more common offshore than inshore.

A. The description of Napoleon fish
B. The physical characteristics of carnivorous fish
C. The divers' favorite animals

Komodo Dragon
Komodo dragon is a member of the monitor family, Varanidae. It is the world's largest living
lizards. It grows to be 10 feet (3 meters) long and weighs up to 126 kg and belong to the most
ancient group of lizards still alive.

It is found mainly in the island of Komodo and on other small islands, Rinca, Padar, and Flores.

Komodo dragon has a long heavy tail, short, strong legs, and rough skin. It is covered with small
dull, colored scales. It can sprint at up 18 km per hours, but only for short distances. When it
opens its wide red moth, it shows row of teeth like the edge of a saw.

Komodo dragons are good simmers and may swim the long distance from one island to another.
Like other lizards, they swim by undulating their tails, and their legs held against their body.

Komodo dragon is totally carnivorous. It hunts other animals during the day.

It hunts deer, wild pigs, water buffaloes, and even horses. While smaller komodos have to be
content with eggs, other lizards, snakes and rodents. Komodo dragons are cannibals. The adult

 The Brainy Body
Your brain is as big as your two fists side by side. It's the place where you think, learn, work out
problems, remember, feel happy and sad, wonder, worry, have ideas, sleep and dream.
Yet the brain looks like a wrinkly lump of grey-pink jelly! On average, it weighs about 1.4
kilograms. It doesn't move, but its amazing nerve activity uses up one-fifth of all the energy
needed by the body.
The main part of the brain is its bulging, wrinkled upper part, the cerebrum. Different areas of its
surface (cerebral cortex) deal with nerve signals to and from different parts of the body. For
example, messages from the eyes pass to the lower rear part of the cerebrum, called the visual
center. They are sorted here as the brain cells work out what the eyes are seeing.
There are also areas for touch, hearing, taste and other body processes. ,
The cerebellum is the rounded, wrinkled part at the back of the brain. It processes messages from
the motor center, sorting and coordinating them in great detail, to send to the body's hundreds of
muscles. This is how we learn skilled, precise movements such as writing, cycling or playing
music (or all three), almost without thinking.
The brain stem is the lower part of the brain, where it joins the body's main nerve, the spinal
cord. The brain stem controls basic processes vital for life, like breathing, heartbeat, digesting
food and removing wastes.
The brain really does have 'brain waves'. Every second it receives sorts and sends millions of
nerve signals. Special pads attached to the head can detect these tiny electrical pulses. They are
shown on a screen or paper strip as wavy lines called an EEG, electro-encephalogram.
24. How big is the brain according to the text?
A. 1.4 kilograms
B. Hundreds
C. Millions tons
D. 1.5 kilograms
E. Two fists
25. What is the main part of the brain?
A. Fists
B. Cerebrum
C. Cerebellum
D. Bulging
E. Encephalogram
