Class- 5 English Worksheet-6

KINDS OF ADJECTIVES

In this worksheet we shall continue with the kinds of adjectives and focus on the

remaining three types. They are:

i) Adjective of number: It is an adjective that shows the number of nouns and

their position in a certain order. It indicates “how many” nouns are there in a

sentence. For example:

(a) There are ten students in the classroom.

(b) I stood first in the race.

Some more examples of adjectives of number are:

Two children make a family perfect.

Few dogs are unhealthy.

There are only nine classrooms in our school.

One hour has sixty seconds.

ii) Interrogative adjective: It is an adjective that modifies a noun by asking a

question. The interrogative adjectives are:

Which -to make a choice between options.

What - to make a choice (in general).

Whose – shows possession.

For example:

(a) Which song will you play on your wedding day?

(b) Whose child is this?

Some more examples of interrogative adjectives are:

Whose book was that?

Which pen do you like more?

What books are you buying today?

Which book on proofreading do you recommend?

Whose pants did you wear?

iii) Demonstrative adjective: It is an adjective that identifies a noun or pronoun

by expressing its position as near or far (including in time). A demonstrative

adjective always comes first in the noun phrase.

For example:

(a) This chair is broken.

(b) Those birds are flying south.

Some more examples of demonstrative adjectives are:

Give me that blue water bottle.

I want those gorgeous marbles.

These mangoes are rotting.

I can't forget that incident.

Major Landforms

Around 29% of the Earth’s surface is covered by land and about 71% by water. The surface of the Earth is not the same everywhere. Some parts are flat and level, while

others are raised.

Landforms are natural features of the Earth’s surface. The major landforms of the Earth are:

a) Mountains

b) Plateaus

c) Plains

d) Deserts

e) Rivers

MOUNTAINS Mountains differ in height and shape. They have very steep slopes. The highest point

of a mountain is called peak or summit. Mountain peaks are mostly conical in shape.

The Himalayas and the Alps are young mountains because they are high and have

conical shape. The Aravallis and the Appalachians are old fold mountains because

they are low and have rounded peaks. Several mountains may join together to form a

chain or a range.

Importance:

Mountains act as a barrier

against cold and hot winds.

Rivers which originate from

mountains provide water for

irrigation.

The slopes of mountains

have rich pasture lands and

valuable forests.

They are rich in minerals.

PLATEAUS A plateau or table land is a highland with a flat top. It rises abruptly from the

surrounding land. Some plateaus are very large and extend over hundreds of

kilometres e.g. The Deccan Plateau in India. The Tibetan Plateau is the largest and the

highest in the world.

Other examples are:

Bolivian Plateau in South America. Colorado Plateau in North America.

Most plateaus are in dry regions and on the leeward side of the mountains.

Due to high altitudes, the climate is cold and the growing season is short.

Many plateaus have deep canyons on their surface.

Importance:

Plateaus have grasslands on which cattle and sheep are reared.

Some plateaus are rich in mineral deposits.

Class – 5 Science Worksheet - 5

REVIEW WORKSHEET: L-3-PLANTS: FOOD AND HEALTH

A Balanced Diet: Our food contains nutrients like carbohydrates, proteins, fats,

vitamins and minerals. It also contains roughage and water. A balanced diet has

the right amounts of all these nutrients.

Carbohydrates give us energy to work and to play. Some good sources of

carbohydrates are cereals, pulses, sweet potato and sugar.

Proteins help us grow. Milk and its products, eggs, meat and pulses are rich in

proteins.

Fats give us more energy than carbohydrates. Vegetable oil, butter and ghee are rich

in fats.

Vitamins keep our body fit, improve appetite and increase the body’s ability to fight diseases.

Minerals help in the growth and development of the body. Fresh fruits and vegetables

are good sources of vitamins and minerals.

Roughage in certain vegetables and fruits help the body to get rid of undigested food.

Keep Fit

Muscles become weak and flabby if they are not used for a long time. Regular

exercise air is pumped in and out of the lungs at a faster rate. Thus, more oxygen is

taken in, and more carbon dioxide and water are given out. The heart beats faster

during exercise and so blood circulates faster. Exercise helps the nervous system by

supplying more oxygen to the brain. We must play outdoor games to keep our body

fit.

Enough Rest

Proper rest and regular hours of sleep relax our muscles, and give our body much

needed rest. We can work more efficiently. Sleep also gives our body time for growth

and repairing its cells.

Diseases

A disease is an abnormal condition in which the body is not able to function properly.

Diseases can occur due to many reasons. Some diseases like diabetes or arthritis are

caused when a particular part of our body stops functioning properly.

Deficiency or the lack of particular minerals or vitamins in the body also causes

diseases. They are called deficiency diseases.

Diseases can broadly be classified into two types- communicable and non-

communicable.

Non-communicable Diseases

These are diseases that are not passed on from one person to another. Some non-

communicable diseases are-

*Night blindness is caused by the deficiency of vitamin A. Green leafy vegetables,

mango, papaya, tomato, butter,

Milk, fish and egg yolk are rich sources of vitamin A. In night blindness, the patient

cannot see in dim light.

*Beriberi is a disease caused by the deficiency of vitamin B1. Vitamin B is present in

unpolished rice, milk, meat, peas, cereals and green vegetables.

*Scurvy is caused by the deficiency of vitamin C. Bleeding of the gums and swelling

of joints result from scurvy.

Vitamin C is present in citrus fruits, amla, tomato, green leafy vegetables, potato and

sprouted grains and pulses.

*Rickets is caused by the deficiency of vitamin D. In this disease the bones become

soft. Vitamin D, along with the minerals calcium and phosphorus, makes our bones

and teeth hard and strong. Calcium comes from milk and its products.

*Goitre is caused by deficiency of iodine. In goitre, a gland in the neck region swells.

Goitre can be prevented by using iodized salt. Seafood is also rich in iodine.

*Anaemia is caused by the deficiency of iron in food. In anaemia, the haemoglobin in

the blood becomes low. So, the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood reduces. Iron is

in dates, apples, bananas, guavas, spinach, brinjal, pulses, jaggery, meat and liver.

Communicable diseases

These are diseases that can be passed on from one person to another. Communicable

diseases are spread by microbes or germs called bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses.

These germs spread through coughing, spitting or sneezing. Germs enter the body of a

person through the nose or mouth, or with food and water. They can also enter the

body through cuts in the skin.

*Bacteria cause diseases like plague, tuberculosis, typhoid, pneumonia and

meningitis.

*Protozoa cause diseases like malaria and amoebic dysentery.

*Viruses cause diseases like the common cold, polio, chickenpox and measles.

Spreading of communicable diseases

*Through direct contact- Many diseases like the common cold, chickenpox,

measles, ringworm, whooping cough and scarlet fever spread through direct contact,

either through clothing or other articles used by the sick person.

*Through infected food and water- Diseases like typhoid, cholera, diarrhoea spread

through contaminated food and water.

Prevention of communicable diseases

Germs of certain diseases stay on articles like clothes, combs, towels and toys used by

a patient. All such articles, including the linen and clothing, must be disinfected or

boiled to kill the germs. The floor and the walls of the room must be sprayed with a

disinfectant. All cases of infectious diseases must be reported to the civic authorities

so that precautions can be taken to prevent their spread in the area. Children suffering

from any communicable disease should stay away from school till they are fully

recovered. Progress in the field of medicine and immunization has helped us to get rid

of many diseases. We should make efforts to prevent the breeding of germs.

Destruction of mosquitoes and their breeding grounds is the best solution for

protection from these dreadful diseases.

Methods of prevention

Houses should be airy and open. Fresh air and sunlight are natural disinfectants.

Mattresses, linen and clothes should be exposed to sunlight from time to time.

A supply of clean and germ-free water for drinking and cooking is essential for health.

Impure water should be boiled for about ten to fifteen minutes and then stored in clean

and covered containers. Water filters can also be used for purifying water.

Chlorination is a way of purifying huge quantities of drinking water.

Germs in milk are killed by pasteurization. The milk is heated at a high temperature

for at least half an hour and then cooled down quickly. This kills harmful bacteria.

Breeding of flies must be prevented in or near your house as they pollute your food

and water and act as carriers of disease. Rooms should have wire screens. Toilets and

bathrooms must be cleaned and disinfected regularly. To stop the breeding of

mosquitoes, water must not be allowed to stagnate. Mosquitoes lay eggs in standing

water. To destroy mosquito larvae, the surface of water in tanks and ponds must be

sprayed with oil. Use a mosquito net or mosquito repellent at night. Kitchens must be

rid of all insects. Floors must be swept every day. Drains must be kept covered.

Vaccination

Vaccination is another way of protecting ourselves by acquiring immunity against

certain diseases. There are vaccines available for diseases like diphtheria, cholera,

typhoid, tetanus, polio, measles, mumps, meningitis and hepatitis. Pulse Polio is an

immunization campaign established by the Government of India in 1994 to eradicate

polio by vaccinating. From time to time all children under the age of five are given

oral polio drops against polio virus. This campaign proved to be successful and the

incidence of polio in India has decreased dramatically. We must get ourselves

vaccinated as a protection against these diseases. There are national programmes to

eradicate communicable diseases. If we take care of ourselves and our surroundings,

we can stay healthy.
