A forest is an area of land dominated by trees. It is the dominant
terrestrial ecosystem on Earth, and is distributed around the globe. This
ecosystem is a complex web of organisms that includes plants, animals, fungi and
bacteria. There are broadly three major types of forests – tropical, temperate,
and boreal forests. They are classified depending on their latitude, local soil, rainfall
and prevailing temperatures. Tropical rainforests boast the great diversity of species
of all ecosystems on earth. They don’t experience winter and normally receive 100
inches of rain annually. Temperate coniferous forests are characterized by moist
climate and a prolonged growing season, thanks to high levels of precipitation. While
boreal forests normally have thin soil, thanks to the cold temperatures that undermine
the rate of decomposition.
How does the paragraph begin?
a. It begins with a clear definition of what a forest is.
b. It begins with a random information about the topic.
c. It begins with explaining how trees dominate forest.
d. It begins with introducing the meaning of an ecosystem.

There are a lot of stars in our universe. They are grouped according to their size, color,
magnitude and brightness. First, they are grouped according to their size. They are Super
Giants, Giants, Medium-sized Stars, White Dwarfs and Neutron Star. Next, stars differ widely
in color. A star color is a guide to its temperature. Hence, Red stars have the coolest
temperature and the Blue stars have the brightest temperature. Lastly, the brightness of stars
is measured using absolute magnitude as bases. Magnitude allows astronomers to rank how
bright stars appear to humans. It is given in terms of absolute and apparent values. The
apparent magnitude of the brightest star in the Earth’s night sky, Sirius is -1.46. The second
star nearest to the Earth is Proxima Centauri.
Main Idea/Heading: Stars are grouped according to their size, color, and brightness.
Name of sizes of stars;
SUPERGIANTS
GIANTS

Yeast is a living organism, yet it is not a plant or an animal. It is a fungus. There
are two types of yeast –commercial yeast and nutritional yeast. Commercial yeast is
sold in many forms. Fresh, wet yeast is made into smooth paste and pressed. Then
the yeast blocks are sold to bakers. Sometimes it is sold all crumbled up in big bags.
Wet yeast is used to make baked goods rise. On the other hand, nutritional yeast does
not make dough rise. It is used to make some kinds of antibiotics. It is also a good
source of B-complex vitamins.

Read the given text carefully and answer the questions;
Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass. All matters have physical
and chemical properties. Physical properties are those that can be observed without
changing the make-up, or identity of the matter. For example, clay is malleable, which
means it will bend or flatten when squeezed. Squeezing, changes the shape of the
clay but does not change what the clay is made of. Chemical properties describe
matter based on its ability to change into a new kind of matter with different properties.
For example, paper is flammable: it is capable of burning in the presence of oxygen.
