Quick Reading & General Knowledge

Reading Comprehension

Passage 1: The Lighthouse Keeper's Secret (fiction)

Elena had lived on the small island for as long as she could remember, helping her grandfather look after the old lighthouse. One stormy evening, as rain hammered against the windows, she noticed the light wasn't turning the way it should. Grabbing a torch, she climbed the spiral staircase, her footsteps echoing against the stone walls. At the top, she discovered that a gull had become tangled in the mechanism, its wing caught between two gears. Carefully, so as not to frighten the bird further, Elena freed it and watched as it flew off into the darkness. She reset the mechanism just in time, and the beam swept back out across the churning sea, guiding a fishing boat safely home.

Passage 2: The Vikings (non-fiction)

Between around AD 800 and 1066, seafaring warriors known as the Vikings sailed from Scandinavia in longships to raid, trade, and eventually settle in parts of Britain. Their longships were fast and light, with shallow bottoms that allowed them to sail up rivers as well as across open sea. Vikings were skilled craftsmen, farmers, and traders, not just raiders โ€” many settled peacefully and became part of local communities. They left behind place names, words in the English language, and archaeological treasures. Eventually, the Viking Age came to an end after the Battle of Hastings in 1066.

Great job working through the workbook! Remember: 15โ€“20 minutes a day, mixing one spelling task with one maths task, works better than doing everything at once.
