Then answer each question.  \nThe Sand Cat  \nSand cats are named for their desert home. You might mistake one for an odd-looking house cat. Unlike a house cat, sand cats have a body made for desert life.  \nWith their sand-colored fur, sand cats disappear against the dunes. This is useful for a desert hunter, but it makes it hard for people to see them in the wild. When people do see a sand cat, the first thing they notice are its ears.  \nThe sand cat’s odd look comes from their ears. The ears sit wider apart and lower on their head than those of a house cat. This protects their ears from blowing sand. In the desert, a house cat’s ears would fill up with sand on a windy day.  \nGrade 1 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nThe sand cat’s ears are important for hunting. Desert hunters need sharp hearing. Sound does not travel well in the desert. The hot, dry air swallows it up.  \nSand cats hunt small rodents that live in tunnels under the sand. The sand cat’s low-set ears help them hear their prey under the ground.  \nThe Sand cat’s large ears also help them beat the desert heat. Veins lie just under the skin in their ears. Heat escapes from the blood as it flows close to the surface.  \nThe sand cat’s ears may look odd, but they  \nmake fine tools for life in the desert.  \nExercises:  \n1 .
