1. this story could best be classified as a. mystery b. comedy. c. adventure. d. science fiction 2. in sentence 13, how did the author use figurative language to describe the penguins? write the answer. 3. in sentence 11, what does the word spar mean? a. to wave b. to swim c. to box d. to argue 4. which of the following statements can you make about penguins in general? a. penguins like to be alone. b. penguins will eat anything. c. penguins are easily trained. d. penguins like a cold environment. 5. what did mr. popper feed the penguins? write your answer.

1. B, comedy (based on the wording in paragraph A) is the most logical.
2. The author used a very detailed simile to describe the penguins and their living environment.
3. D, the wording of the sentence prior the use of the word helps you infer the definition.
4. D, it's a straight up FACT and is stated in the passage.
5. Mr. Popper fed the penguins fish. For example, paragraph C states, "The live fish were specially ordered and were bought all way from the coast in tank cars and glass boxes to 432 Proudfoot Avenue." This shows that penguins eat seafood because in their natural habitat, penguins have to fish for food.
The formatting I used for 5 is called an ACE paragraph (Answer the question, Cite evidence, and Explain your answer) feel free to use it for answering future questions :)
