Summarizing

A lion was sleeping peacefully when he felt a mouse scampering over his face. Grabbing her by the tail, he was about to devour her when she bravetly said, “Lion,if you spare my life, I will repay your kindness in the future.” The lion roared with laughter at the thought of such a tiny creature helping him-the king of the jungle. He was so amused that he let the mouse go.

Sometime later, the lion got snared in a trap. Hearing the lion’s angry roar, the mouse ran to his rescue. She gnawed away the ropes that bound him until he was free. “You ridiculed the idea of a tiny creature like me being able to repay a favor to a great creature like you,” the mouse said. “Now, you know that little friends can be great friends.”

‘We are very miserable,’ said Darzee. ‘One of our babies fell out of the nest yesterday, and Nag ate him.’

‘H’m!’ said Rikki-tikki, ‘that is very sad – but I am a stranger here. Who is Nag?’

Darzee and his wife only cowered down in the nest without answering, for from the thick grass at the foot of the bush there came a low hiss – a horrid cold sound that made Rikki-Tikki jump back two clear feet. Then inch by inch out of the grass rose up the head and spread hood of Nag, the black cobra, and he was five feet long from tongue to tail.

Read the Passage.

Goodbye, Cod
The Atlantic cod was once the mainstay of the United States fishing industry. However, warming of the ocean along the shores of New England has caused the stock of cod to disappear almost completely. According to scientists at the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, the Gulf of Maine is heating up faster than a majority of the rest of the planet's oceans. As a result of warmer ocean waters, female cod produce fewer offspring, and these fish are less likely to survive to maturity. Even though recreational cod fishing was banned in 2014, and strict limitations were placed on the number of fish commercial fishermen could catch, these measures have not been enough to protect the cod.

What is the main idea of the passage?

A) Because cod use to be abundant in the Atlantic, it was once the backbone of the U.S. fishing industry.

B) Female cod are producing fewer offspring in the Gulf of Maine.

C)Because the Gulf of Maine is warming unusually quickly, Atlantic cod are disappearing.
