ENGLISH HOLIDAY HOME WORK STD 6


I.             Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:
             A skunk is an animal the size of a cat found in North America. It is known for the stinky smell that it can spray. All skunks are black and white. They may have either stripes or spots on their fur.
            Skunks spray an oily liquid to drive away their enemies. They spray does not harm the enemy but the foul smell can be very unpleasant.
            So how do you escape being sprayed by a skunk? There is just one way: look out for the warning signs. What should you do when a skunk hisses, clicks its teeth or stamps its front teeth? Just run! Why? Because any of these may mean that it is getting ready to spray!
