COMPREHENSION PASSAGE

ROCKS

Rocks can be defined as the outer layer of the earth’s crust and cover. There are three types of rocks-igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are the only true rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from fragments of other rocks and the remains of plants and animals that come together and become solid.

Metamorphic rocks are either igneous rocks or sedimentary rocks that have changed their form due to heat and pressure.

The commonest type of igneous rock is grantle, while chalk and limestone are examples of sedimentary rocks. Marble is a metamorphic rock. It is formed from limestone which has undergone change from heat and pressure to become marble.

Rocks are used for many things including construction, building and decorations.

THE LAGOS CENTRAL MOSQUE

Nimotallah and Wasilat were still on holidays. They were in the central part of Lagos. Nimotallah was happy showing Rodiat, her friend, places in Lagos. They spent about an hour watching the water fountain at the Tinubu Square. They were going back to Idumota through Nnamdi Azikiwe Street.

Suddenly, the main road was closed. Vehicles were no longer allowed to pass through the road. Rodiat was afraid. People were moving fast. They were hurrying to the central mosque. Nimotahi said, “Today is Friday. It’s time for Jumat service.” Rodiat asked, “What’s a Jumat service?” “It’s the service of worship held by Muslims on Fridays in mosques,” Nimotallah replied.
