Comprehension OE (16 marks)

Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

 

   Unlike most of the fightless birds, penguins are skilled swimmers. Four of the best-known species are the Emperor, Adelie, Chinstrap and Rockhopper penguins. Penguins walk awkwardly on land. They walk with a clumsy waddle or a hop. To move faster, they slide on their bellies when they go downhill. However, penguins are graceful and move fast in the sea. They use their webbed feet as rudders to change direction. Their feet are also used as brakes. Most penguins do not eat at all times of the year. When they are breeding, they may go for weeks without feeding. For the Emperor species, they can last for months without eating. Before breeding, penguins feed constantly to build up a reserve of fat.
