WORKSHEETS
SECTION A
READING
Q.1 Read the following passage and answers the questions that
follow:
1. Do you know how many feathers does a bird have? The bigger a
bird is, the more feathers it has on its body. A humming bird has 900,
while a swan has 25,000 or even more. Feathers come in all shapes,
sizes and colours.
2. The soft, silky and velvety feathers keep the bird warm. The big and strong feathers give
it the strength to fly. Birds get a set of new feathers almost every year. As the new ones
grow, the old ones slowly fall.
3. The feathers are used by human beings in various ways. They are used in pillows and
caps. Before the invention of pens, people wrote with large feathers with pointed ends
called quills. In Panama in Central America, people use bright feathers for headgears. The
zoo and bird sanctuaries all over the world collect feathers. They send them to Panama
because there is no point in hunting birds for feathers.
