Read this passage and answer the questions below :

Mr. and Mrs Faisal and their children, Fahd, Ali and Mona travelled to China to spend

their summer holiday. Mr. Faisal and his wife went to the markets and shopping centres

looking for lovely things to buy. They bought different things for their friends and relatives

at home.

China is a lovely country because it is green all the year round. It rains a lot there

family also visited the Great Wall of China which was built in 210 BC. The children liked

II-Comprehension

Read this passage and answer the questions below:

Nobody can live without food. Food is important to keep people alive. People can go on

wars to protect their food or to steal other people's food. Some countries spend a lot of

money to buy food but others can have food in cheap ways. Shapes of food are different;

they are not the same everywhere. This happens because people are different in many things

such as types of cooking, habits of eating, the materials used to make food and sometimes

because of religion. Muslims for example do not eat pigs.

In the past, people used to eat at home but nowadays we have a big list of restaurants

that offer many types of food. Also, we can eat special dishes from many countries. The

most famous dishes are the Italian like pizza and macaroni, the English like burger and hot

dog and the Mexican Fahita. But the most amazing thing is the sandwich with all of its

shapes. The Arabian food is very delicious too. Here in Kuwait, people like to eat Brianny

with meat .

1. The suitable title for this passage is……………………

a) Kinds of food b) Small countries

c) Types of cooking d) Muslims

Read the following passage then answer the questions below:-

The weather is not always the same. It changes from time to time and from place to

place. The weather conditions are different and varied. We can find it cloudy, rainy, sunny,

snowy, humid, dry and stormy. The four seasons can tell us the shape of the weather and we

used to have the same actions each time in each season. We put on heavy clothes in winter

and we go to the beach in summer. And it is warm in both spring and autumn.

Sometimes we can see the four seasons in one day because of the changes in the weather.

This happens in hot countries that have a big wide area of land especially in Africa and South

America. There you can see all the types of the weather along the day. So you can find many

different types of animals and plants there. To keep yourself away of the bad changes of the
