D. Application

Direction: Identify the text structure of the following passages, write the
signal words and clues that helped you determine the structure.

TEXT STRUCTURES:______________________________

SIGNAL WORDS USED: ___________________________

A butterfly’s life cycle comes in four stages. First, a butterfly lays its eggs, which
take only about five days to hatch. Second, a caterpillar emerges from the egg and
starts eating everything in sight. Third, it begins making a protective shell called a
chrysalis, where it turns into a butterfly. Fourth, the chrysalis opens to reveal a
beautiful butterfly. Eventually, it lays eggs, and the cycle begins again.

TEXT STRUCTURES:______________________________

SIGNAL WORDS USED: ___________________________

Biking and running are two of the best kinds of exercise. Both are full of health
benefits, including keeping your heart and lowering stress. In addition, both are
convenient. Often, you can just step out your front door and get going all by
yourself. Biking does require a bike, of course, which can get expensive, unlike
running, which just requires sturdy shoes. Also, biking is easier on your body since
your joints aren’t pounding on your body since your joints aren’t pounding into the
ground with each step.

TEXT STRUCTURES:______________________________

SIGNAL WORDS USED: ___________________________

In 1835, James Bowman invented the light bulb, which uses electricity to make
light. This invention caused huge changes across the world. In a basic sense, this
new and easy way of creating light meant that it was now much easier to perform
tasks after dark. As a result of the light bulb, businesses could stay open later.
Homes and streets were now better lit for nighttime activity. It also made things
safer, as the gaslights that were used before ligh bulbs could be very dangerous.
