Reading Comprehension Worksheet 1

How The Camel Got His Hump By Rudyard Kipling

Once upon a time there was a stubborn Camel, who lived alone in the desert, eating sticks and

twigs and prickly cactus. Many other animals were working for Man, and one day they tried to get

the Camel to follow them. But all he ever said was “Humph.”

“Stubborn Camel,” said the Dog with a stick in his mouth, “Come and fetch

like the rest of us.”

“Humph,” said the Camel. And another day went by.

“Stubborn Camel,” said the Horse with a saddle on his back, “Come and trot

like the rest of us.”

“Humph,” said the Camel. And another day went by.

“Stubborn Camel,” said the Ox with a yoke on his neck, “Come and plough like the rest of us.”

But all the Camel had to say to that was… “Humph!”

And another day went by. The next day, the Man gathered his Horse, Dog and Ox together and

said, “I’m sorry, but the Humph-thing in the desert clearly will not come work for me. I have given

up, and you’ll have to work double time to make up for it.”

The animals were very angry. They decided to travel down to the oasis to find the magical spirit

who was in charge of All Deserts. They called him the Jinn, or genie. The three animals asked for

his help—the Jinn would never tolerate laziness in his deserts, especially from the Humph-thing.

The Jinn found the Camel sleeping in some shade. “Stubborn Camel,” said the Jinn, “What is this I

hear of your laziness? You must go work for Man with the other animals.”

“Humph,” said the Camel.

“I would not say that again if I were you,” warned the Jinn, “You have given them three days of

extra work.”

“Humph!” said the Camel. And no sooner had he said it, than a great humph sprang out of his

back like a big balloon. “What is this?” cried the Camel, “Now I certainly cannot work with a great

humph on my back!”

The Jinn chuckled, “You’ve brought that humph upon yourself by not working. Think of it as a gift.

You missed three days of work, so now you will be able to work for three days without eating,

because you can live on your humph.”

So the stubborn Camel humphed himself in to town to work for Man at last. To this day he has

never learned how to behave himself. And that was how the Camel got his hump.

The Magnetic Compass

Magnets are not an invention; magnets occur naturally in mineral called magnetite. Magnetite is

an iron oxide that is easily magnetized when it forms. Magnetite is also known as Lodestone. The

Greeks are credited with discovering magnetism. In one story, the nails in the shoe of a shepherd

named Magnes stuck to a rock containing magnetite. The first practical use of a

magnet was invented by the Vikings, who created the first magnetic compass. It was

the compass that allowed them to travel so extensively by sea and to invade

England. Because the magnetic compass gave the Vikings such an

advantage, it was a very closely guarded secret in their culture. The

Chinese invented a magnetic compass too, separately from the Vikings,

and it was following the start of commercial trade with China that the

magnetic compass was introduced in Europe. This made it possible for the

Europeans, too, to travel vast distances across the ocean, although this

didn’t happen until nearly 500 years after the Vikings. Today, all ships use

magnetic compasses to navigate.

Ecology: Taking Care of Earth

The term ecology comes from a Greek word that means “the study of

the house.” Ecology is the study of how all living things interact with their

environments. In a way, Earth is the house of all living things. We all live

together on this planet and it is our home. Today, we also understand

ecology to mean taking care of the Earth so that humans, plants and

animals can all thrive. However, we can damage the environment.

Sometimes the damage is irreversible.

Ecology is a huge area of study. It covers every part of a living creature’s ecosystem

that affects its ability to live. Ecology considers how a living thing reacts to climate, soil

conditions. It also studies how much clean water is available and the amount natural

resources. By learning about how living things, including humans, affect each other, we

can make smart decisions that protect all living things and the resources they need.

There are many things that children can do to help make sure that their world stays healthy.

The decisions you are making today can affect the future.

Conservation is one area of ecology where we can all make a difference. It does not matter

how old we are or where we live. Conservation means using Earth’s limited resources wisely so

that they don’t run out. When you are home, take a moment to think about how you use

resources. Many people waste resources. Leaking toilets, half- filled dishwashers or clothes

washers, and unattended hoses all waste precious water. If you leave lights on and appliances

running in rooms where they are not being used, you are wasting energy.

There’s another way we can help conserve Earth’s resources. We can show our support of

businesses that make their products using methods and materials that do not damage Earth.

By buying their products, we are telling them that we appreciate their

efforts to be Earth-friendly.

We need to take the time to learn about how to save resources. More

importantly, we must then put into practice what we learn. Children can

do their part. They can show their families some ways to save resources.

Together, we can all make a difference.

The Emperor’s New Clothes

Hans Christen Andersen

Hans Christian Andersen was a famous Danish writer. He is known for writing fairy tales, such as “The

Little Mermaid” and “The Snow Queen.” His story “The Emperor’s New Clothes” was first published in

1837. Below is the beginning of the story.

Many years ago, there was an Emperor, who was so excessively fond of

new clothes, that he spent all his money in dress. He did not trouble

himself in the least about his soldiers; nor did he care to go either to the

theatre or the chase, except for the opportunities then afforded him for

displaying his new clothes. He had a different suit for each hour of the

day; and as of any other king or emperor, one is accustomed to say,

“he is sitting in council,” it was always said of him, “The Emperor is sitting

in his wardrobe.”

Time passed merrily in the large town which was his capital; strangers arrived every day at

the court. One day, two rogues, calling themselves weavers, made their appearance. They

gave out that they knew how to weave stuffs of the most beautiful colors and elaborate

patterns, the clothes manufactured from which should have the wonderful property of

remaining invisible to everyone who was unfit for the office he held, or who was

extraordinarily simple in character.

“These must, indeed, be splendid clothes!” thought the Emperor. “Had I such a suit, I might at

once find out what men in my realms are unfit for their office, and also be able to distinguish

the wise from the foolish! This stuff must be woven for me

immediately.” And he caused large sums of money to be given to

both the weavers in order that they might begin their work

directly.

So the two pretended weavers set up two looms, and affected to

work very busily, though in reality they did nothing at all. They

asked for the most delicate silk and the purest gold thread; put

both into their own knapsacks; and then continued their

pretended work at the empty looms until late at night.

In her journey through Wonderland, Alice has become very small. She knows she needs to become her normal

size again, but she’s not sure how to do that.

From Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

It sounded an excellent plan, no doubt, and very neatly and simply arranged; the only

difficulty was, that she had not the smallest idea how to set about it; and while she was

peering about anxiously among the trees, a little sharp bark just over her head made her

look up in a great hurry.

An enormous puppy was looking down at her with large round eyes, and feebly stretching

out one paw, trying to touch her. ‘Poor little thing!’ said Alice, in a gentle tone, and she tried

hard to whistle to it; but she was terribly frightened all the time at the thought that it might be

hungry, in which case it would be very likely to eat her up in spite of all her gentleness.

Hardly knowing what she did, she picked up a little bit of stick, and held it out to the puppy;

whereupon the puppy jumped into the air off all its feet at once, with a yelp of delight, and

rushed at the stick, and made believe to worry it; then Alice dodged behind a great thistle,

to keep herself from being run over; and the moment she appeared on the other side, the

puppy made another rush at the stick, and

tumbled head over heels in its hurry to get hold

of it; then Alice, thinking it was very like having a

game of play with a cart-horse, and expecting

every moment to be trampled under its feet, ran

round the thistle again; then the puppy began a

series of short charges at the stick, running a very

little way forwards each time and a long way

back, and barking roughly all the while, till at last

it sat down a good way off, panting, with its

tongue hanging out of its mouth, and its great

eyes half shut.

This seemed to Alice a good opportunity for

making her escape; so, she set off at once, and

ran till she was quite tired and out of breath, and

till the puppy’s bark sounded quite faint in the

distance.

While We Sleep By Sharon Noble

While you are asleep at night, some people are at work. Night workers do many important

jobs. They sleep during the day. Many cleaners work at night. They clean streets, offices and

shops while it is quiet and there are not many people around. Road workers keep our roads

safe to drive on. They often repair roads during the night when there is very little traffic. Some

railway workers work at night, too. They fix train tracks and railway signals so that trains can

travel safely. People are also needed to drive trains and buses.

Pilots fly planes at night, too. Many goods, such as fresh food and newspapers, have to be

delivered every day. Some truck drivers work through the night to make sure that these goods

arrive on time. Most bakers start work while it is still dark. They bake at night so that the bread

will be fresh when it goes on sale in the morning. News stories don’t only happen during the

day. Some reporters need to work during the night to make sure that all the news is up to date.

Hospital patients need to be looked after twenty-four hours a day. Many doctors, nurses need

to work at night. Fires, accidents and other emergencies can happen at any time. So, there

are always firefighters, police and ambulance workers on duty.

CHOCOLATE A short and Sweet History

We normally think of chocolate as a sweet treat, but it began as a bitter beverage!

Chocolate as a food got its start in ancient times, when it wasn’t just a dessert – it played an

important part in ritual and culture.

In ancient Latin America, chocolate was worshipped – literally! Both the

Mayan and Aztec people had gods that they believed were responsible for

bringing chocolate to the earth. The two cultures consumed chocolate as a

drink, which was popular among nobility. It was believed that the cocoa bean

had magical powers, and it was used during major life events like births,

marriages and deaths.

Chocolate wasn’t mixed with sugar until Europeans came in contact with the

Americans in the 1500s. They brought it home to Europe, where it became an expensive import

and a symbol of wealth. Instead of chili and corn, Europeans added cinnamon and sugar to

chocolate. But because chocolate was imported from another country, chocolate was

available only to the upper class and became a symbol of wealth and status.

In the mid-1600s, “chocolate houses,” which were like the coffee houses we have today,

were a trendy meeting place for English citizens. By the 1700s, chocolate was a part of life for

upper-class citizens in Europe; believed to be a nutritious drink with many health benefits. Back

in America, chocolate was so popular that it was included in the rations for soldiers on the

battlefield in the Revolutionary War.

In the early 1800s, the Industrial Revolution was in full swing, and

people quickly found ways of speeding up the chocolate- making

process. In 1828, a Dutch chemist found a way to remove some of the

natural fat from chocolate, which led to the creation of chocolate in

food form. The first chocolate bar was made in 1847, and by1868, a

company called Cadbury began selling chocolate candies. The same

year, Nestle invented milk chocolate.

Complete the Mystery

Jillian’s bedroom was a terrible mess. Her pillows, usually on top of her neatly made

bed, lay on the carpet heap. Jillian had taken every coat out of her closet, turned the

pocket inside out, and tossed them into a pile. Her shoes, which she kept tucked under her

bed in a neat row, were tossed all around the floor. She had dumped the contents of her

backpack out onto her bed and turned all the pockets in the backpack inside out, too. The

dresser drawers were open, clothes spilling out of each one. Frustrated, Jillian plopped down

on the rug and groaned.

Jillian’s mother appeared at her door. “What’s the matter,” she asked, “and why is it

so messy in here?”

“I can’t find my glasses anywhere,” Jillian complained. “I’ve looked everywhere I can

possibly think of, and still, no luck. I’m all out of ideas, Mom. Do you have any?”
