10 UNSEEN OMPREHENSION Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. THE FLYING INOSUR When you think about dinosaurs, do you see in your imagination dinosaurs that could fly? Most people are surprised to know that some dinosaurs could actually fly. One example of a flying dinosaur is the pterosaur. The pterosaur was a dinosaur that lived around 65 million years ago. The special thing about this dinosaur was that it could fly quite well. This dinosaur had short arms, but its wings were much longer. Some pterosaurs had a wingspan of around 15 metres. This was longer than the wingspan of many light aeroplanes today! Each wing had three fingers that worked like a hand. The body of the pterosaur was very light. This means that it could fly easily. To fly, these dinosaurs fluttered their wings like birds do today. Even though these pterosaurs looked like immense birds, they did not have fhers like birds do today. In fact, they had hair [called fur ] all over their bodies. It must have been very difficult for these dinosaurs to move easily on the ground because they had such large wings and very small feet. 41. The underlined word it in paragraph 2 refers to. short arms a wingspan light aeroplanes the pterosaur 42. The underlined word immense in paragraph 3 means. very easily very small very big very difficult Page 10 of 13
