It describes how growers plant in spring and provide water, sunny days, and good soil while checking the pumpkin daily as it grows dozens of pounds in a single day. It also explains the weigh-off contest, where a crane lifts each pumpkin onto a scale and the heaviest one wins, including the record weight over 2,700 pounds.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/giant-pumpkins-reading-and-answer-key/486808/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/giant-pumpkins-reading-and-answer-key/486808.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"acoobca","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-31","2026-09-30",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":39},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What is the passage mostly about?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"It is mostly about how giant pumpkins grow and how they are judged in a weigh-off contest.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"How much did the heaviest pumpkin ever grown weigh?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"It weighed more than 2,700 pounds.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"What does a giant pumpkin start out as?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"It starts out as one tiny seed from the Atlantic Giant variety.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},486808,1790821808,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":19,"category_name":20,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":39,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":24,"language":139,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":140,"faqs":141,"seo_title":142,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":143,"read_time":144,"preview_page_count":4},3985747870733,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_a8503ba1806abce46bf441b54a3ca4cd","Wow, can you imagine a pumpkin as heavy as a small car? Some giant pumpkins really do get that big and round! These orange giants sit fat and lumpy on the ground, so heavy that noone can lift them alone.  \nBig as they are, these pumpkins start as one tiny seed. The seed comes from a special kind called the Atlantic Giant, which is grown just to get huge. Growers plant it in spring, and by fall it can grow into a pumpkin bigger than you!  \nGrowing that fast is hard, hungry work for a pumpkin. At its best, a giant pumpkin can put on dozens of pounds in a single day, so it needs lots of water and sunny days. Growers give it good soil and check on it every day, like caring for a big orange baby.  \nWhen fall comes, growers bring their pumpkins to a contest called a weigh-off. A big crane lifts each pumpkin onto a scale, and everyone cheers to see which one weighs the most. The heaviest pumpkin ever grown weighed more than 2,700 pounds, which is heavier than a small car!  \nGiant Pumpkins  \nName:  \n\n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) What is this whole passage mostly about?\u003Cbr>A.
