Text 4 for number 9 to 11

On our first evening, we sat around the fire for supper listening to the stories which our uncle had to tell of his many adventures in distance countries. I was so tired after the long train journey that I would have preferred to go to bed; but I could not bear to miss any of my uncle’s exciting tales.
          He was just in the middle of describing a rather terrifying experience he had once had when his small sailing boat was carried out to sea in a storm, there was a loud crash from the bedroom above, the one where my brother and I were going to sleep.
          “It sounds as if the roof has fallen in!” exclaimed my uncle, with a loud laugh.
          When we got to the top of the stairs and opened the bedroom door we could see nothing at first because of the thick clouds of dust which filled the room. When the dust began to clear, a strange sight met our eyes. A large part of the ceiling had collapsed, falling right onto the pillow of my bed. I was glad that I had stayed up late to listen to my uncle’s stories; otherwise I should certainly have been seriously injured, perhaps killed.

The rattlesnake has a reputation as a dangerous and deadly snake with a fierce hatred for humanity. Although the rattlesnake is indeed a venomous snake capable of killing a human, its nature has perhaps been somewhat exaggerated in myth and folklore.
The rattlesnake is not inherently aggressive and generally strikes only when it has been put on the defensive. In its defensive posture the rattlesnake raises the front part of its body off the ground and assumes an S-shaped form in preparation for a lunge forward. At the end of a forward thrust, the rattlesnake pushes its fangs into the victim, thereby injecting its venom.
There are more than 30 species of rattlesnakes, varying in length from 20 inches to 6 feet and also varying in toxicity of venom. In the United States there are only a few deaths annually from rattlesnakes, with a mortality rate less than 2 percent of those attacks.

A.    The Exaggerated Reputation of the Rattlesnake.

B.    Lies in an S-shape on the ground
C.    Lunges with the back part of its body
