I. Reading comprehension/2
Read the following passage, then answer the questions below:
Have you ever heard of an animal called a leopard? Maybe
you’ve seen one at the zoo or learned about it at school. These big cats
have light-colored fur that is covered in dark spots. They are known for
being the strongest of the big cats. Sometimes they are mixed up with
cheetahs, but they are not the same!
Leopards can be found in many parts of the world like India, China, and
Africa. They can live anywhere from deserts to tropical places. Their dark
spots help them blend with their surroundings. This is good because
leopards are hunters. Their spots help them hide while they search for
prey. The leopard’s main food source is meat. It hunts weaker animals in
order to have food. It will even hunt for fish and crabs in the water
because unlike most cats, leopards love the water.
Leopards are night animals. This means they prefer to sleep during the
day and move around at night. They have amazing eyesight and can
see much better in the dark than a human. While most leopards have
light fur with dark spots, there is a different type called the black leopard.
It has dark fur with dark spots. It can be hard to see the spots because
they blend into the rest of the fur. Unfortunately, the leopard population
has been going down in recent years. This means there are fewer
leopards being born. This is especially true in the countries outside of
Africa.
