Then answer each question.  \nThe Invisible Cargo  \nOnce, long ago, there was a ferryman named Reimer. He worked carrying cargo across the Lim Fjord in Denmark. Reimer had traveled to Copenhagen, the biggest city in Denmark, to renew his ferry license. Renewing the license took a while, and it was Christmas Eve by the time he finished.  \nReimer was sad as he walked along the streets of Copenhagen. Snow fell all around him, and the gas lamps flickered in the darkness. It was a long way home, and Reimer did not want to miss Christmas with his family. Reimer went into a small coffee shop to warm up a little.  \nA little man in a gray coat was already in the shop. When he saw Raimer’s long face, the little man asked Raimer what was wrong.  \nRaimer explained that he was far from home and was sad about missing Christmas with his family.  \n“Reimer, would you like to get home in one night?” the little man in a gray coat softly asked.  \nReimer looked at the man. “Of course I would, but it is too far.”  \n“Not for me,” the man said. “I will get you home in one night if you will dome a service.”  \nGrade 4 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \n“What kind of service?” Reimer asked.  \n“I would like you and your ferrymen to carry a  \nspecial cargo from the south side of the sound to the north side of the sound.”  \nReimer agreed, and the little man led him to a small, black horse. Reimer climbed up  \nbehind the dwarf. The horse took off. They  \nflew through the air more quickly than Reimer had ever imagined.  \nFor several hours, Reimer and the dwarf rode through the air. At one point, Rei mer heard the clink of iron on iron.  \n“What was that?” Reimer asked.  \n“Oh, nothing to worry about,” the little man said. “It’s just the horse’s hoof hitting the top of Vi borg Cathedral.”  \nBefore long, the horse stopped in front of Reimer’s house. Reimer couldn’t believe he had gotten home in one night. It just wasn’t possible.  \nStill, Reimer could not argue with results. He was home for Christmas!  \nReimer stepped into the house and hugged his wife. He sat with his children in front of the fire and told ghost stories until late into the night.  \n“It’s time for bed, children,” Rei mer said at last.  \nGrade 4 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nThe children went to bed , and Rei mer and his family spent a wonderful Christmas together.  \nLife continued , and Rei mer soon forgot about his promise to the dwarf.  \nOne evening, just as the sun was setting,  \nRei mer heard a knock at the door. He opened it to see the little man in the gray coat.  \n“It is time for you to fulfill your promise,” the dwarf said.  \nRei mer got his coat and kissed his wife and children. He gathered his crew and went to the sound where his ferry was.  \nThe dwarf soon arrived. “Are you ready?” he asked.  \nRei mer nodded , took his place at the helm of the ferry and waited for the ferry to be loaded with the dwarf’s cargo.  \nFor a long while , Rei mer heard the sound of footsteps. He watched and waited as the little man walked back and forth. However ,  \nRei mer saw no boxes loaded onto the ferry. He saw no crates loaded onto the ferry. He did not see anything loaded onto the ferry! Curiously though , he noticed that the ferry was now sitting much lower in the water than previously , as if some heavy weight was pushing it downwards.  \n“We’re ready,” the little man said.  \n“But there’s nothing there,” Reimer said. “I’ve been watching, and I have seen nothing.”  \nGrade 4 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \n“Just trust me,” the dwarf said.  \nAll night long, Rei mer and his crew carried loads of invisible cargo from the south side of the fjord to the north side of the fjord. The ferry lowered with the sound of footsteps on the south side. The ferry rose in the water with the sound of footsteps on the north side.  \nThe sun was just beginning to rise when Reimer stopped on the northside with the last load. The dwarf got off the ferry and sh","cbCait0MYSqbej7Q","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCait0MYSqbej7Q","pdf",189395,"English","# Questions\n## Question 1-3\n## Question 4\n## Question 5\n# Answers","[{\"question\":\"What job did Reimer have in the story?\",\"answer\":\"Reimer was a ferryman who carried cargo across the Lim Fjord.\"},{\"question\":\"What deal did Reimer make with the dwarf?\",\"answer\":\"The dwarf asked Reimer to get him home in one night by ferrying a special cargo across the sound from the south side to the north side.\"},{\"question\":\"If the cargo is invisible, how do the dwarves’ actions show what is happening?\",\"answer\":\"Reimer notices the ferry lowering and rising with footsteps on opposite sides, even though no boxes or crates are visible.\"}]","The Invisible Cargo - Reading Comprehension Grade 4 Worksheet | PDF",1791790936,18]
