When completed around 2560 BCE, it stood 147 metres high, as tall as a modern 44-storey building. The Great Pyramid was the world&#8217;s tallest building for more than three thousand years. More than two million huge stone blocks were used to construct it. The builders of the pyramid positioned it&nbsp;<strong>meticulously<\/strong>&nbsp;so that it perfectly faces true north. Scientists aren&#8217;t sure how the ancient Egyptians knew how to place the base. Experts also disagree about how those huge blocks were moved into place. They don&#8217;t even fully understand the design of the inside of the pyramid. More work must be done to solve these mysteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">What is the meaning of&nbsp;<strong>meticulously<\/strong>&nbsp;as used in the passage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list has-normal-font-size\">\n<li>carefully, with attention to detail<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>happily, without any hesitation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>with many people pushing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>in a great hurry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background-background-color has-background has-normal-font-size\">As used in the passage, <strong>meticulously <\/strong>means carefully, with attention to detail.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-background has-normal-font-size\" style=\"background-color:#f8b9b9\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Read the passage and then answer the question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">A porcupine has an excellent defense against most predators. Porcupines are covered with sharp, needle-like quills. They use these to&nbsp;<strong>puncture<\/strong>&nbsp;the skin of any predator that tries to attack. The fisher cat, however, has found a way around a porcupine&#8217;s defenses. The fisher cat isn&#8217;t big, but it is very fierce and has sharp teeth. It attacks the porcupine&#8217;s face, where it has no quills. When the porcupine is tired or injured, the fisher cat can then roll its prey over to finish the attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">What is the meaning of&nbsp;<strong>puncture<\/strong>&nbsp;as used in the passage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list has-normal-font-size\">\n<li>confuse<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>burn<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-normal-font-size\">pierce<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>tickle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background-background-color has-background has-normal-font-size\">As used in the passage, <strong>puncture <\/strong>means pierce.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/5thclass.deltapublications.in\/index.php\/e-cc-3-use-context-to-identify-the-meaning-of-a-word\/7\/\"><strong>list of &#8221; Use context to identify the meaning of a word &#8220;<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#d90000\">Read the passage and then answer the question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">In 1492, Christopher Columbus landed on the shores of what came to be called the New World. Other explorers and settlers soon followed Columbus from Europe, many seeking gold and riches. These colonists brought many things with them from Europe, introducing new plants and animals to North America. They also brought several European&nbsp;<strong>maladies<\/strong>. The natives of North America had never before been exposed to these strange new diseases. As a result, many became very ill and died. We don&#8217;t know the full effect that the Europeans had on the native populations. However, many historians believe that up to ninety-five percent of native populations died as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\"><div class = \"hdq_quiz_wrapper\"><a href = \"https:\/\/5thclass.deltapublications.in\/index.php\/e-cc-3-use-context-to-identify-the-meaning-of-a-word\/\" rel=\"noamphtml\" class = \"hdq_quiz_start hdq_button button\" role = \"button\" title = \"QUIZ START\">QUIZ START<\/a><\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#d90000\">Read the passage and then answer the question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Bloodhounds&#8217; sense of smell is about a thousand times better than humans&#8217;. Because of this ability, they can help people in many ways. For example, bloodhounds have been used to help hunt animals for hundreds of years. Bloodhounds can also be helpful in finding missing people. For instance, they can track a missing hiker&#8217;s scent through the woods. In one famous story, a bloodhound was taken to the scene of a fire. Although the fire had been out for days, the dog picked up a scent and followed it. In a house more than a kilometre away, the dog located the man who had set the fire. Police can use bloodhound evidence like this in court to help make sure that the right person is&nbsp;<strong>prosecuted<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\"><div class = \"hdq_quiz_wrapper\"><a href = \"https:\/\/5thclass.deltapublications.in\/index.php\/e-cc-3-use-context-to-identify-the-meaning-of-a-word\/\" rel=\"noamphtml\" class = \"hdq_quiz_start hdq_button button\" role = \"button\" title = \"QUIZ START\">QUIZ START<\/a><\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#d90000\">Read the passage and then answer the question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Sedimentary rock forms in layers over time. When the layers form, plant and animal remains can create fossils in the rock. Older rock layers are usually found deeper underground. Unfortunately, movements of Earth&#8217;s tectonic plates can cause some older layers to appear higher than younger layers. This movement makes determining the age of rocks challenging. However, geologists can use fossils to help them&nbsp;<strong>decipher<\/strong>&nbsp;the age of rock layers. This is why fossils are so important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\"><div class = \"hdq_quiz_wrapper\"><a href = \"https:\/\/5thclass.deltapublications.in\/index.php\/e-cc-3-use-context-to-identify-the-meaning-of-a-word\/\" rel=\"noamphtml\" class = \"hdq_quiz_start hdq_button button\" role = \"button\" title = \"QUIZ START\">QUIZ START<\/a><\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#d90000\">Read the passage and then answer the question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">In 1860, the Pony Express was started. It was created to meet the demand for faster mail service across the United States. On horseback, Pony Express riders carried bags of mail long miles over rugged western trails. During their routes, the riders faced many dangers. For example, many riders told stories about encounters with wild animals and robbers. Despite these dangers, Pony Express riders were known to be very fast. They were able to carry word of Abraham Lincoln&#8217;s election as president over 1,500 kilometres in just five days. In less than two years, though, the Pony Express became&nbsp;<strong>obsolete<\/strong>. Once the telegraph was invented, there was no need for the Pony Express.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\"><div class = \"hdq_quiz_wrapper\"><a href = \"https:\/\/5thclass.deltapublications.in\/index.php\/e-cc-3-use-context-to-identify-the-meaning-of-a-word\/\" rel=\"noamphtml\" class = \"hdq_quiz_start hdq_button button\" role = \"button\" title = \"QUIZ START\">QUIZ START<\/a><\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#d90000\">Read the passage and then answer the question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">In the early days of automobiles, rain was a real problem for drivers. Water covered the windscreens, so they couldn&#8217;t see. They had to open their windows and stick their heads outside! When Mary Anderson saw drivers struggling in the rain, she thought she could help. Anderson started working on designs for a rain-clearing device. Even after many failures, she kept experimenting. This&nbsp;<strong>persistence<\/strong>&nbsp;resulted in Mary Anderson&#8217;s invention of the modern windscreen wiper. Her design put a rubber blade on a wooden stick. Today&#8217;s wipers use the same basic principle that Mary Anderson dreamed up in 1903.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\"><div class = \"hdq_quiz_wrapper\"><a href = \"https:\/\/5thclass.deltapublications.in\/index.php\/e-cc-3-use-context-to-identify-the-meaning-of-a-word\/\" rel=\"noamphtml\" class = \"hdq_quiz_start hdq_button button\" role = \"button\" title = \"QUIZ START\">QUIZ START<\/a><\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#d90000\"><strong>list of &#8221;
