Topic: Comprehension Passage
Statement: Have you got the time? Date: / / 23

People today are always thinking about the time. There never
seems to be enough time to do all the things we want to do.
Believe it or not, there was a time before time was
so important. It was enough to know that the
sun was out. That meant it was daytime.
During these days when the clock seems to
control us, doesn’t that sound kind of nice? Time
can mean a lot of different things. That’s one way
we know how important it is for us. We have so
many words about it! The smallest amount of time
we can measure is called a second. When you put 60
seconds together, you get one minute. If you take 60
minutes, you get one hour.
The hands of the clock go all the way around twice in 24 hours, giving us one day. If
you want to look at time beyond one day, you leave the clock and look at a calendar
instead. There are about 30 days in one month. Some months have an extra day;
February has a couple less. There are 12 months in one year. Time never stops.
Answer the following questions based on the reading passage. Don’t forget to go back
to the passage whenever necessary to find or confirm your answers.

1) What are people always thinking about these days?

___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
4) How many seconds are in one minute?

5) How many months are in one year?

Resources are things that we use. Natural resources come from

Earth. Many of our natural resources are limited. This means that they will
not last forever. Some resources are renewable. This means
the resource can be replaced or grown. You can plant a new
tree when you cut one down. Other resources are not
renewable. This means that they cannot be replaced or grown. You can
dig coal out of the ground. Once the coal is used, it is gone. Many of
Earth’s natural resources are limited, but people can help
conserve those resources. When you try to conserve a natural
resource, you use less of it so it does not get used up so fast.
One way that people conserve fuel, like gasoline, is by riding a
bicycle or walking. This works well when the distance is short.
We don’t have to drive everywhere. Water is a very important natural
resource. We all need it to live. We can conserve water by making sure that our pipes
and faucets do not leak. We can also conserve water by making smart choices. One
choice is to use the dishwasher and washing machine only when they are full. Another
choice is to turn off the water when you brush your teeth. We can all make a
difference!
Answer the following questions based on the reading passage.

1) What is a natural resource?

2) What is a renewable resource?

Statement: Many ways to measure Date: / / 23

There are many different ways to measure. There are many different
tools to help us, too. You can use a tape measure or yardstick to
measure height. Height is how tall someone or something is. To
measure a person’s height, start where his feet touch the floor.
Stop at the top of his head. You can measure the height of
objects the same way. When you measure weight, you are
measuring how heavy someone or something is. You can use
a scale to measure weight. There are many kinds of scales.
You may have a scale with a dial. Other scales have digital
numbers. You may have one in your bathroom for weighing yourself. A scale can also be
used to weigh objects. Some things are very light. A spring scale or a balance scale
work better for measuring light objects. When you measure temperature, you are
measuring how hot or cold something is. The best tool to use for measuring
temperature is a thermometer. Different kinds of thermometers help you measure
temperatures, inside and outside.

Answer the following questions based on the reading passage.
