1.4 Drawing Conclustions
C. Read each passage. Then read the conclusion drawn from the facts. Decide whether the conclusion is a good based on facts. If it is , write Good Conclusion on the line. If it is not , write a conclusion that is reasonable.
1. The Venus flytrap is a plant that eats insects ; it is hence a carnivorous
plant. Its main diet is flies , caterpillars and spiders but it must be said
that the plant will eat any small insect that is unlucky enough to get
trapped that the plant can use for nutrition.
Conclusion : Venus flytrap eats only flies , caterpillars and spiders.
A conclusion that is reasonable.
2. There are numerous kinds of seashells. They are found all over the world.
Some are as small as peas. The giant clam shell , though , is very big. It
can be up to three feet wide. Over the year, shells have been used in
many different ways. They have been used as tools, money, spoons and
dishes.
Conclusion : Shells come in all shapes and sizes.
A conclusion that is reasonable.
3. The kiwi is a flightless bird found only in New Zealand. There are three
main types of kiwi : brown , great spotted and little spotted . All kiwi
species have declined since European settlement of New Zealand and the
little spotted kiwi is most at risk . It survives only on one small island
reservation, which was stocked with birds from the mainland.
Conclusion : The little spotted kiwi faces extinction and is hence protected.
Good conclusion.
4. Origami is the art of paper folding. It is an old Japanese skill. People can
make birds, flowers and many other shapes from folded paper. From Japan
origami has spread to the West. All around the globe, paper folding is
thought of as a skill, an art or just plain fun.
Conclusion : It is very difficult to learn origami.
A conclusion that is reasonable.
5. As with all ancient civilisations, the exact origins of the Incan civilisation
are unknown. Their historic record, like that of all other tribes evolving on
the planet at that time, would be recorded through oral tradition, stone,
pottery, gold and silver jewellery, and woven in the tapestry of the people.
Conclusion : Their jewellery is one of the records historians had to rely on
for most of the ancient civilizations.
A conclusion that is reasonable.
