Q1. Read the passage and answer the questions. Everyone has a favourite attraction at an amusement park, and I am no different. However, unlike most people who seem to prefer roller coasters, my favourite ride is a little gentler. Every time I go to Coney Island, I absolutely have to ride the Ferris wheel.

The Ferris wheel is simple yet also quite complex. That is, ride it is easy, but it work is complicated. A series of carts are attached to a wheel which is attached to a rim. The rim rotates vertically around an axis, and gravity keeps the carts upright. As simple as the ride seems, only advanced engineers make safe and fun Ferris wheel.

While the Ferris wheel is not thrilling as a roller coaster. It is still very exciting. The fact of being high in the air makes it so much more entertaining than a lot of rides. I mean how often do you hang from that high up in daily life?

Nevertheless, I have to admit, I don’t seek Ferris wheels out because of their excitement. Rather, I find them very relaxing. At the top of the Ferris wheels, you get beautiful sights of the park. You also get a sense of calm that you get in the hustle and bustle of the park below.

Additionally, Ferris wheels are also gorgeous to look at when they are lit up at night. In fact, the original Ferris wheel was designed as much to be seen as to be ridden.

6) Summarize the passage into 50 words.

What type of writing is demonstrated in this excerpt by general philip henry sheridan? at once i set about preparing for the examination which precedes admission to the military academy, studying zealously under the direction of mr. william clark; my old teachers, mcnanly and thorn, having disappeared from somerset and sought new fields of usefulness. the intervening months passed rapidly away, and i fear that i did not make much progress, yet i thought i should be able to pass the preliminary examination. that which was to follow worried me more and gave me many sleepless nights; but these would have been less in number, i fully believe, had it not been for one specification of my, outfit which the circular that accompanied my appointment demanded. this requirement was a pair of "monroe shoes." now, out in ohio, what "monroe shoes" were was a mystery—not a shoemaker in my section having so much as an inkling of the construction of the perplexing things, until finally my eldest brother brought an idea of them from baltimore, when it was found that they were a familiar pattern under another name. a. research essay b. persuasive essay c. biography d. memoir
