​​THE SHEEP

​

​EXAMPLE OF DESCRIPTIVE TEXT

​The Sheep is found in every quarter of the globe, and is one of the most profitable animals that mankind possesses.

His flesh is eaten by the inhabitants of all nations, and, as you know, is called mutton.

The wool of the Sheep is very valuable, and most of our clothing is made from it: that produced by the breed called Merino sheep is particularly fine, and fetches a high price.

The skin is also of service, and forms covers for many of your school-books. Sheep-washing and shearing are busy times for the farmer, and are very interesting sights.

Young sheep are called lambs—you have often seen the gentle little things skipping about in the meadows.
