How to Make Ice Cream

Do you like ice cream? Maybe you always buy it at the store (9)and from an ice cream shop, but
did you know you can make your own ice cream at home?
In the smaller bag, combine 1 cup of milk, about 2 tablespoons of sugar, and ½ teaspoon of
vanilla. Close the top up tightly! Use your hands to squish the bag to mix the ingredients, or
shake the bag. In the larger bag, combine (10)over 2-4 cups of ice and about ⅓ cup of salt. Put
the smaller bag into the larger bag, making sure the small bag is still (11)closing tightly. Close
the larger bag. If you (12)wants to keep your hands warm, put on the winter gloves or wrap the
larger bag in a towel. Shake the bags (13)yet at least 5 minutes. Take a peek at the smaller bag
to see if it (14)looked like ice cream, or if it’s still liquid. If it looks like ice cream, (15)than you can
take the smaller bag out of the larger one, pour the ice cream into a bowl, and enjoy your treat! If

for each answer. For each question, write your answer in the space provided on your answer
sheet.

The book, ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi’ is written by Louis Fischer and has been hailed as the
best biography of Gandhi. It narrates the life of Gandhi who led the fight for India’s independence
from British rule and the many issues that led to his assassination by a Hindu fanatic a few
months after freedom was won.

The biography shows Gandhi as a great human being – a leader who was gentle,
conscientious and honest. He stood for righteousness. Gandhi gave up all his desires and
sacrificed his life for the sake of the country. He went through many fasts, demonstrated against
colonial powers in a peaceful manner and went to jail so that his country could be free.

Reading the book, reminds me of what Einstein said of Gandhi. ‘Generations to come will
scarce believe that such a person ever walked in flash and blood upon this earth.’

It is a real pleasure to read about Gandhi. This book is very relevant in today’s world of
corruption and greed. It is a must-read for those interested in reading biographies.

Read the text and choose no more than five words and or a number from the text for each
answer. For each question, write the correct answer in the space provided on your answer sheet

The Life Cycle

When you plant a seed, does it stay a seed forever? No! Plants and animals grow and change
throughout their lives. Many plants begin as seeds. As the seed gets what it needs (water,
sunlight, and nutrients from the soil), it begins to grow.
The seed turns into a little sprout. It keeps growing until it is a full-grown plant. Then the plant
makes new seeds, so that new plants can grow even after the plant grows old and dies. Those
seeds will then go through their growth process. Because seeds go through this process over
and over again, it is called a life cycle. Animals also have life cycles.
A frog begins as an egg. When the egg hatches, it turns into a tadpole. The tadpoles grow legs
and arms, and eventually grow into adult frogs. The adult frogs lay eggs, so that new frogs can
live even after the frog grows old and dies.
A dog’s life cycle is a little different than a frog’s, because a dog does not start out as an egg. It
is born from its mother’s belly. The puppy keeps growing and is eventually an adult dog. Then
the adult dog might have puppies to continue the life cycle! Insects like caterpillars go through
life cycles, too.
Caterpillars begin as eggs. When they hatch, they are larva. The caterpillar becomes a pupa,
and inside of the pupa it turns into an adult. The adult is not a caterpillar; it is a butterfly! Then
the butterfly lays eggs, so that new caterpillars and butterflies can live even after the butterfly
grows old and dies.
Plants and animals don’t stay the same throughout their lives, they grow and change through
their life cycle.
