You’ve also learned how to write descriptions. Now you are going to play a guessing game in which you will describe an object or place related to a crime. Your classmates will act as detectives and try to guess what your object or place is. In teams, discuss some of the objects and places discussed in the unit readings.

Keep practicing until you can present your description smoothly and confidently. Try to include enough details so that the audience can guess your object or place, but not so many that you give away the answer too easily. Remember not to let anyone see your visual. Deliver Your Description Speak loudly enough so that everyone can hear you. Look at people as you speak. Emphasize key details with your voice and gestures. When you’re finished, invite students to guess your topic. After someone guesses correctly, or if no one guesses correctly, show your picture of the object or place. 4 EVALUATE THE PRESENTATION A good way to improve your skills as a speaker and listener is by evaluating each presentation you give and hear. Use this checklist to help you judge your presentation and the presentations of your classmates. Did the description include lots of sensory details? Could you picture the object or place that was being described? Could you hear and understand what the speaker was saying? Did the speaker seem to be having fun? What suggestions do you have for improving the presentation? SKILLS Listen for clues to the speaker’s topic. Try to figure out right away if the topic is an object or a place. Then you can get more specific. Write down key details as you listen. Think about how they relate to objects and places you know. SKILLS Be sure you are speaking slowly and clearly. Ask your listeners for feedback. Can they understand all of your words? Try to stay relaxed and have fun as you give your description. Remember, this is a game!

Writing

Describe a Place

At the end of this unit, you will write a descriptive essay. To do this, you will need to learn some of the skills used in descriptive writing. When writers describe a place, they choose specific details to help readers picture it in their minds. Writers also arrange details in a logical order. For example, details might be arranged from near to far or top to bottom or front to back. This is called spatial order.

Write a paragraph that describes a mysterious place. Use spatial order to arrange your details. Include signal words and phrases such as above, below, close up or in the distance to guide your readers through your place. Be sure to use complete sentences and use the parts of speech and parts of the sentence correctly.

1 PREWRITE Begin by choosing a mysterious place.

• Ask yourself which details best describe this place.

• Think about the best way to arrange these details.

• List your ideas in a graphic organizer.

A student named Angelina created this graphic organizer. She plans to describe a pyramid located in Mexico.

Angelina XingChichén Itzá

The ruins of Chichén Itzá are located on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. As you approach the site, the tallest pyramid, Kukulkan, looks intimidating. It is seventy-nine feet high. When you get closer, you can see the ninety-one original steps that you must climb to get to the top. Before climbing, you can enter an inner temple through a narrow passageway on the north side of the pyramid. Inside is a statue of a scarlet jaguar with eyes made of jade that glow green. Then you can go outside and climb up to the top for a spectacular view of the surrounding ruins. When there is an equinox, crowds of people gather below to see a serpent crawling down the pyramid, an illusion created by the shadow of the sun.

2 DRAFT Use your organizer to help you write a first draft.

• Keep in mind your purpose—to describe a place.

• Include details that will help readers picture this place in their minds.

• Use spatial order to arrange details.

3 REVISE Read over your draft. Look for places where the writing is unclear or needs improvement. Use the Writing Checklist to help you identify problems. Then revise your draft, using the editing and proofreading marks listed on page 456.

4 EDIT Check your work for errors in grammar, usage, mechanics, and spelling. Trade papers with a partner to obtain feedback. Use the Peer Review Checklist on Workbook page 8. Edit your final draft in response to feedback from your partner and your teacher.

5 PUBLISH Prepare a clean copy of your final draft. Share your descriptive paragraph with the class. Save your work. You’ll need to refer to it in the Writing Workshop at the end of the unit.

Here is Angelina’s paragraph about a place that seems mysterious to her. Notice how she arranges details to show clearly what is outside the pyramid and what is inside it.

ORGANIZATION: I used spatial order to arrange details.

WORD CHOICE: I included signal words such as inside, outside, near, or far in my description.

Grammar

Parts of Speech and Parts of the Sentence

A complete sentence has a subject and a predicate. The subject is what or whom the sentence is about. The subject can be a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase. The predicate tells something about the subject. It contains either an action verb or a linking verb. Sometimes an action verb is followed by another noun. It is called the object. A linking verb is followed by either a predicate noun or predicate adjective, which describes the subject.

An adjective describes a noun. It often follows a linking verb, as above, but an adjective can also come before the noun it describes. An adjective can describe any noun in a sentence.

An adverb can describe the action of a sentence. It can appear in various places in a sentence. Some adverbs end in -ly; many do not.

Subject Action Verb Object

Everyone left the city.

Subject Linking Verb Word to Describe Subject

He became a God. (predicate noun)

The monster looked big. (predicate adjective)

The famous Loch Ness Monster is a living dinosaur. [describes subject]A man and a woman saw a huge creature. [describes object]

If the subject of a sentence is singular, the noun following the linking verb will also be singular: The creature looked like a giant ape. If the subject is plural, the noun will also be plural: The creatures looked like giant apes.

SKILLGrammar

His younger brother died suddenly. [describes how he died]

Many sentences also contain prepositional phrases. These can show time or location. A preposition, such as in, at, on, from, and for, is followed by a noun or noun phrase, which is called the object of the preposition.

Prepositions Showing Time

In 1911, Hiram Bingham rediscovered it.Dutch explorers arrived there on Easter Sunday, 1722.

Prepositions Showing Location

Easter Island is a tiny island in the Pacific Ocean.Carnarvon’s dog died at the same time at his home.

Everyone is the subject of the sentence. What action takes place in the sentence? (left) Left is the action. It is the verb. The object of the action is city. City is the direct object. Write the words in a three-column chart. Repeat the procedure with the second sentence. Find additional sentences, and with students, decide which word is the subject, action verb or linking verb, object, and predicate noun or predicate adjective. Place each word in the correct column in the chart. Explain to students that an adjective can describe any noun used in a sentence. Give an example of an adjective describing a subject or a direct object in a sentence.

Explain adverbs and give examples to students. Provide practice sentences for the students to identify the adverbs.

READING STRATEGY PREVIEW

Previewing a text enhances your comprehension of it. When you preview a text, you prepare yourself for the information you are about to learn. To preview, follow these steps:

Read the title and headings (section titles).

Try to turn the headings into questions.

Look at the visuals and read the captions or labels.

Think about what you already know about the subject.

Before you read “Fact or Fiction?” look at the title, headings, visuals, and captions. Think about what you already know about these subjects. What more would you like to know?

Word Study: Same Sound, Different Spellings

In English, sometimes the same sound can be spelled in different ways. The only way to figure out the correct spelling is to check the word in a dictionary and memorize it. When you read “Fact or Fiction?” you will come across the words calendar, together, calculator. Say each word aloud with a partner. What sound do you hear in the final syllable of each word? Notice that the final sound / er/ is the same, though the spellings are different.

The sound / er/ can be spelled in different ways when it comes at the end of a word in an unstressed syllable. Study the chart for more examples.

Work with a partner. Copy the chart above into your notebook. Say a word from the chart, and ask your partner to spell it aloud. Then have your partner say the next word. Continue until you can spell all of these words correctly. Then work with your partner to spell the following words: beggar, cracker, doctor, dollar, hammer, and tractor. Add them to the chart under the correct headings.

To acquire grade-level vocabulary, actively memorize new words and their spellings. To help remember this information, be sure to review it often.

THE BIG QUESTION

Can all mysteries be solved? You are going to read about a series of real-life mysteries. The first concerns the Egyptian pyramids. Work with a partner. Use your prior knowledge to explore everything you know about pyramids. What do they look like? Where, when, and how were they built? In your notebook, record what you already know.

Now look at the picture below. Read the facts about the Great Pyramid at Giza in Egypt. Discuss the picture and facts with your partner.

1READING

BUILD BACKGROUND“Fact or Fiction?” explores mysterious places, creatures, and events from the past. First, this nonfiction article focuses on the pyramids of Egypt, one of the most puzzling of mysteries. Then it goes on to explore other historical puzzles: What happened to the people of Machu Picchu? Is there really a curse on King Tutankhamen’s tomb? What mysterious creatures live in the depths of the sea? Is there a monster in a lake in Scotland? As you read, think about how you would try to solve one of these mysteries.

The pyramid is as tall as a forty-story building. It took 20,000 workers twenty years to build it.

It is made up of more than 2 million blocks of stone. Each block weighs about 2,200 kilograms (5,000 lb.).

The bottom of the pyramid is as big as eight football fields.

Workers used a knotted string as a measurement tool.

Workers used logs and ramps.

Use your prior knowledge. Relating what you already know to a new topic will make it easier to understand new meanings in English.

Path to the Stars?About 4,500 years ago, the pharaoh Cheops and his son

and grandson built the three Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. These pyramids were tombs, or places to bury the dead. For thousands of years, people didn’t understand why these three pyramids were grouped together.

Then Belgian engineer Robert Bauval noticed that the shape of the three pyramids was the same as part of a group of stars in the sky called Orion’s Belt. The whole group of stars—Orion—was sacred to the Egyptians. When Cheops died, he was buried in the Great Pyramid of Giza. The Egyptians made a shaft—or hole—in this pyramid. The shaft led from Cheops’s tomb to the sky and the three stars of Orion’s Belt. Scientists believe that the Egyptians built this shaft so that Cheops could fly from the pyramid to Orion. There, he would become a god.

BEFORE YOU GO ON

1 Why do scientists think that the Egyptians made a shaft in the Great Pyramid?

2 What has happened to the Sphinx over time?

On Your Own Why do you think

people might leave a city forever?

The Secret of the Great SphinxA huge statue with the head of a man and the body of a lion

stands in Giza, Egypt. Known as the Great Sphinx, it seems to defend the pyramids behind it. Like the pyramids, the Sphinx is made from limestone, which is very common in Egypt. The exact age of the Sphinx remains one of the world’s great mysteries. For thousands of years, wind and sand have erodedthis enormous sculpture. Some archaeologists believe that water also damaged the Sphinx many centuries ago. Was the Sphinx once buried at the bottom of the sea? No one knows for sure.

Mysterious CitiesSome ancient cities were abandoned and no one knows why.

One of these cities is Machu Picchu, located about 2,440 meters (8,000 ft.) high in the Andes Mountains of Peru. The Inca built Machu Picchu from about 1460 to 1470 c.e. They lived in parts of South America, including what is now Peru. They used stone blocks to make most of the buildings. The blocks fit together perfectly.

In the early 1500s, everyone left the city. No one knows why. Perhaps people died or left because of smallpox, a deadly disease that was brought to the Americas by European explorers and colonists. Machu Picchu was forgotten for hundreds of years. Then, in 1911, the American explorer Hiram Bingham rediscovered it. Today, tourists from all over the world visit this unique city.

Organisms and SpeciesAn organism is a living thing. A huge redwood tree

is an organism. A small mouse is an organism. A tiny insect is an organism. A human is an organism, too. Some organisms, such as bacteria, are so small that you cannot see them.

A group of very similar organisms is a species. The organisms in a species are so similar that they can reproduce—that is, have offspring, or babies—together, and their offspring can reproduce, too. Horses and cows, for example, cannot have offspring together because they are different species.
