1. The
Venus flytrap is
a plant that
eats insects ; it is hence
a carnivorous
plant.
Its main diet
is flies , caterpillars
and spiders but it must
be said
that
the plant will
eat any small
insect that is
unlucky enough to get
trapped
that the plant
can use for
nutrition.
Conclusion : Venus
flytrap eats only
flies , caterpillars and
spiders.
A conclusion
that is reasonable.
2. There
are numerous kinds
of seashells. They
are found all
over the world.
Some
are as small
as peas. The
giant clam shell ,
though , is very
big. It
can
be up to
three feet wide.
Over the year,
shells have been
used in
many
different ways. They
have been used
as tools, money,
spoons and
dishes.
Conclusion : Shells
come in all
shapes and sizes.
A conclusion
that is reasonable.
3. The
kiwi is a
flightless bird found only in
New Zealand. There
are three
main types
of kiwi : brown ,
great spotted and
little spotted . All
kiwi
species
have declined since
European settlement of
New Zealand and
the
little spotted
kiwi is most
at risk . It
survives only on
one small island
reservation,
which was stocked
with birds from
the mainland.
Conclusion : The
little spotted kiwi
faces extinction and
is hence protected.
Good conclusion.

It is an old Japanese
skill. People can

the West. All
around the globe,
paper folding is
thought
of as a
skill, an art
or just plain
fun.
Conclusion : It
is very difficult
to learn origami.
A conclusion
that is reasonable.
5. As
with all ancient
civilisations, the exact
origins of the
Incan civilisation
are
unknown. Their historic
record, like that
of all other
tribes evolving on
the planet
at that time,
would be recorded
through oral tradition,
stone,
pottery,
gold and silver
jewellery, and woven
in the tapestry
of the people.
Conclusion : Their jewellery
is one of
the records historians
had to rely
on
for most of
the ancient civilizations.
A conclusion
that is reasonable.
