3 Practice 1 Stories Nonfiction All Kinds of Eggs You may think that if you have seen one egg, you have seen them all. But not all eggs are the same. They come in different shapes, sizes, and colors. For instance, the biggest egg is the ostrich egg. An ostrich egg is on the average 6 inches (150 mm) in length, and its diameter is about 5 inches (125 mm). It weighs about 3 pounds (1.35 kg). How long would it take to hard-boil an ostrich egg? It would take about two hours! (Hard-boiling chicken eggs takes about minutes.) Then there are murre eggs. These eggs are pear-shaped, but they may be different colors. Some may be blue, while others are green or pink. They are marked with red, brown, or black specks. Why are murre eggs pear-shaped? Why are they different colors? Murres are sea birds that nest on high, rocky cliffs. A pear-shaped egg, if knocked or blown by a strong wind, does not roll straight. It spins in a circle because of its shape. The pear-shape helps keep the egg from falling into the ocean. The different colors help murre parents know which eggs are theirs. The bird that lays the largest egg for its size is the kiwi. A kiwi that weighs 5 pounds (2.3 kg) can lay an egg that weighs 1 pound (.45 kg)! Fiction The Egg Puzzles Manny said, I have two eggs. One egg is raw. It has not been cooked at all. The other is hardboiled. My egg puzzle is this: tell me which egg is the hard-boiled egg without cracking the shell. Susie said, I will solve your puzzle if you can solve mine. Tell me, how can you remove the shell from a hard-boiled egg without cracking it? Manny said, Ha! You thought I d be stumped, but I know the answer. All you have to do is dissolve the shell by putting it in a jar full of with vinegar. In just a few hours, the egg will begin to feel soft and rubbery. The shell will be completely gone by the next day. Susie said, I don t need vinegar to solve your puzzle. All I need is a flick of my wrist! I will flick my wrist to spin both eggs on the table. I have to stop them quickly and then immediately let go of them again. Only one of the eggs will start spinning again. Good! said Manny. The egg that keeps spinning will be the raw egg. It s because the liquid inside it is still moving. Susie said, That s right. Now let s go eat lunch and talk about what came first: the chicken or the egg. #3031 Nonfiction & Fiction Reading 4 Teacher Created Resources, Inc.

5 Practice 2 Stories Nonfiction Night Walkers When we picture vampire bats, we usually imagine them flying through the air or hanging upsidedown. But they can walk, too! When a vampire bat spots its next meal, it can fly down and land on the ground. It can then walk slowly and silently, carefully moving toward its prey. A special thumb on each wing helps the bat with balance. This same thumb also helps the bat jump up from the ground onto its prey. Often, the prey never knows that the bat is there. It never even knows that it provided the bat with a meal! But it has: the vampire bat has eaten the prey s blood. Vampire bats are found in Mexico, Central America, and South America. They are small and shy, and they can fit into the palm of ones hand. They are also nocturnal, which means that they are active at night. Vampire bats feed on sleeping animals, such as cows, horses, and pigs. They like to feed on the same animal night after night. Vampire bats cannot smell blood, but they can smell their prey. Using their sense of smell, they can pick the same animal out of a large herd. Sometimes vampire bats can t find food, but they don t go hungry. This is because other bats will share food with the hungry bats. How do vampire bats share their food? They vomit up blood into the hungry bat s mouth. Fiction Why Bats Aren t Bad Benito said, I don t like bats. Bats are blind, dirty, birds. Bats don t do any good. I wish there weren t any bats. Dave laughed and said, Benito, you can think what you want about bats, but you should have your facts straight. First, bats are not blind. Bats can see quite well. Second, bats are not dirty. They spend a lot of time grooming themselves and their roost mates. Third, bats are mammals, not birds. They are the only flying mammals in the world. Benito said, Okay, bats aren t blind, dirty birds, but I still wish there weren t any. Dave said, Do you like bananas or avocados? Benito laughed. He said, What do those foods have to do with bats? Dave said, You said bats don t do any good. The truth is that if it weren t for bats, we might not have bananas, figs, avocados, or many other tasty foods! Fruit- and nectar-eating bats are great pollinators. They pollinate many trees and shrubs. They scatter seeds, too, through their droppings. And then there are bats that are insect eaters. Some bats can eat as many as 3,000 crop-destroying pests or mosquitoes in one night! Just then, a mosquito began to buzz around Benito s face. I could use a bat right now! said Benito, slapping at the mosquito. #3031 Nonfiction & Fiction Reading 6 Teacher Created Resources, Inc.
