The Revealers

Chapter Five: Anatosaurs

"She could be in there."
"The boiler room?"
"Well? She could..."
An awful noise - "Sqwer...ONK!" - came from somewhere.
"What was that?"
"The crested duckbill might have sounded just like that! It had this long curving hollow bone crest that reared up and back from its nasal cavity. Kind of like a horn, you know? It must have sounded..."
"SqueeeeEEEEEEE-HONK!"
"Like that."
"The practice room! Come on."

Choose and answer three of the following:
1. What do you think the noise is? How can you tell? Support your answer with evidence from the text.

2. Who are the two speakers? How can you tell who is who?

3. Circle a word that you don't know from the passage. Look the word up in a dictionary and record it and its definition below.

4. Who do you think "she," is? Do you think "she" is responsible for the noise? Why or why not?
