Reading
11. Read Fatima’s blog post.

I’m at the zoo today because I’m doing a project on gorillas for school. There’s a place called Gorilla
World here, and a lot of gorillas live in it. It’s really big!
I’m learning a lot of interesting things about these wonderful animals. One gorilla here is 5 feet tall! I’m
only 4 foot 5 inches, so he looks really big! He has very long arms, too.
How do gorillas live in the wild? Well, they eat a lot of fruit that they find up in trees. They get up early
(not like me!), and they look for food in the morning. They go to sleep at noon, and then they look for
food again in the afternoon. In the evening, they make a bed and go to sleep again.
They can live to be 45 years old in zoos. I can see four gorillas here right now, so I’m taking a lot of
photos of them. I can’t see the others, though. I think they’re hiding!

Are the sentences true (T) or false (F)?

1. There aren’t many gorillas at Gorilla World.
2. One gorilla there is bigger than Fatima.
3. Fatima says gorillas eat fruit.
4. Fatima says gorillas sleep all afternoon.
5. Fatima is taking photos of all the gorillas at the zoo.
