D: Comprehension: 1- Read the passage and answer the following questions.
The embalmers next removed all moisture from the body. This they did by covering the
body with natron, a type of salt which has great drying properties, and by placing
additional natron packets inside the body. When the body had dried out completely,
embalmers removed the internal packets and lightly washed the natron off the body.
The result was a very dried-out but recognizable human form. To make the mummy
seem even more life-like, sunken areas of the body were filled out with linen and other
materials and false eyes were added.
Next the wrapping began. Each mummy needed hundreds of yards of linen. The priests
carefully wound the long strips of linen around the body, sometimes even wrapping
each finger and toe separately before wrapping the entire hand or foot. In order to
protect the dead from mishap, amulets were placed among the wrappings and prayers
and magical words written on some of the linen strips. Often the priests placed a mask
of the person’s face between the layers of head bandages. At several stages the form
was coated with warm resin and the wrapping resumed once again. At last the priests
wrapped the final cloth or shroud in place and secured it with linen strips. The mummy
was complete.
I. Choose the right answer:
1. What was used to dry the body?
Ⓐ natron Ⓑ coated Ⓒ mishap Ⓓ mask
2. What was placed among the wrapping to protect the dead body from mishap?
Ⓐ layer Ⓑ amulets Ⓒ coated Ⓓ shroud
3. What did the priests place between the layers of head bandages?
Ⓐ resin Ⓑ fingers Ⓒ mask of the person’s face Ⓓ cloth
II. Complete the sentence choosing the correct word:
1. The result was a very dried-out but __________________human form.
Ⓐ recognizable Ⓑ secured Ⓒ linen Ⓓ bandage
2. The _____________________next removed all moisture from the body.

2- Making Juice Story By: Andrew Frinkle
Billy always loved blueberries. They were his favorite fruit. Today he was going to make
blueberry juice with his uncle. They used a potato masher and really crushed the
blueberries into a mess. It looked like pie filling to Billy. Then they got to push them
through a strainer. The strainer caught most of the seeds and skins, leaving them with
a small pot of dark purple juice. When they tasted it, the flavor was so strong! They
could really taste the blueberries. It wasn’t very sweet though. They added grape juice
to the blueberry juice. Billy’s uncle didn’t want to ruin the berries with white sugar
from a bag. It was better to use a naturally sweet juice, like apple juice, pear juice, or
grape juice. They used grape juice as a sweetener, because grapes had a similar color
to the blueberries. Finally, they could drink it. It was a lot of work to make juice, but it
sure was refreshing!
Use the information in the story to answer the questions below.
Write True or False:
1. Billy does not like blueberries.
Ⓣ True Ⓕ False

Ⓣ True Ⓕ False
3. Billy and his uncle added orange juice to the blueberry juice.

3- Making Juice Story By: Andrew Frinkle
Billy always loved blueberries. They were his favorite fruit. Today he was
going to make juice with his uncle. His uncle liked to make juice out of everything. He
made carrot juice, apple juice, mango juice, vegetable juice, and many more juices.
He’d never made blueberry juice before though! First, Billy and his uncle went to a
blueberry farm. They were each given buckets. They picked for an hour and got several
pounds. It was hard work picking the little berries from the trees. Now Billy understood
why they were expensive in the store. These blueberries tasted better than the store,
though, because they grew ripe on the tree.
Next, they had to sort and wash the fruit. Some of them still had stems or leaves.
Those had to be pulled off. Then the shriveled up berries had to be thrown away. They
washed the remaining berries and put them in a strainer to drip dry.
Use the information in the story to answer the questions below.
Write True or False:
1. Billy is making orange juice.
Ⓣ True Ⓕ False

4- EGYPTIAN MUMMIES
The method of embalming, or treating the dead body, that the ancient Egyptians used is
called mummification. Using special processes, the Egyptians removed all moisture from
the body, leaving only a dried form that would not easily decay. It was important in their
religion to preserve the dead body in as life like a manner as possible.
The mummification process took seventy days. Special priests worked as embalmers,
treating and wrapping the body. Beyond knowing the correct rituals and prayers to be
performed at various stages, the priests also needed a detailed knowledge of human
anatomy.
The first step in the process was the removal of all internal parts that might decay
rapidly. The brain was removed by carefully inserting special hooked instruments up
through the nostrils in order to pull out bits of brain tissue. It was a
delicate operation, one which could easily disfigure the face. The
embalmers then removed the organs of the abdomen and chest. . . .
They left only the heart in place, believing it to be the center of a
person’s being and intelligence. The other organs were preserved
separately, with the stomach, liver, lungs, and intestines placed in special boxes or jars
today called canopic jars. These were buried with the mummy. In later mummies, the
organs were treated, wrapped, and replaced within the body. Even so, unused canopic
jars continued to be part of the burial ritual.
1. The mummification process took _______________ days.
Ⓐseventy Ⓑ twenty Ⓒ sixty Ⓓ three
2. Special ______________worked as embalmers, treating and wrapping the body.
ⒶEgyptians Ⓑ priests Ⓒmummies Ⓓ teachers
3. The _____________was removed by carefully inserting special hooked instruments.
Ⓐbrain Ⓑ liver Ⓒintestines Ⓓ stomach
Write True ( T ) or False ( F ) :
1) The first step in the process was the removal of all internal parts that might decay
rapidly. Ⓣ True Ⓕ False
2) It was important in their religion to preserve the dead body in a lifelike manner
Ⓣ True Ⓕ False
3) They left only the lungs in place, believing it to be the center of a person’s being and
intelligence.
Ⓣ True Ⓕ False
