A cactus (plural: cacti, cactuses, or cactus) (is/are)…. a member of the plant familyCactaceae,
within the order Caryophyllales. Cacti (is/are)…. native to the Americas, ranging from Patagonia
in the south to parts of western Canada in the north. There is only one exception, Rhipsalis
baccifera, which is also found in Africa and Sri Lanka.
Most cacti (live/lives)…. in habitats which are subject to at least some degree of drought. Many
live in extremely dry environments, even being found in the Atacama Desert, one of the driest
places on earth. Cacti (show/shows)…. many adaptations to conserve water. Most species of
cacti have lost true leaves, retaining only spines, which are highly modified leaves. As well as
defending against herbivores, spines (reduce/reduces)…. air flow close to the cactus and
provide some shade, both of which help to prevent water loss.
In the absence of leaves, enlarged stems (carry/carries)…. out photosynthesis. Unlike many
other succulents, the stem (is/are)…. the only part of most cacti where this vital
process(take/takes)…. place. Cactus stems also (store/stores)…. water, often being ribbed or
fluted which allows them to expand and contract easily. Cacti come in a wide range of shapes
and sizes. The tallest free-standing cactus is Pachycereus pringlei, with a maximum recorded
height of 19.2 m (63 ft), and the smallest is Blossfeldia liliputiana, only about 1 cm (0.4 in) in
diameter at maturity. Many cacti (have/has)…. a short growing season and a long dormancy
and are able to react quickly to any rainfall, helped by an extensive but relatively shallow root
system. A fully grown saguaro (Carnegiea gigantea) is said to be able to absorb as much as
200 US gallons (760 l; 170 imp gal) of water during a rainstorm.

WRITTEN CYCLE
A. Building Knowledge of Field
Grammar Focus
Conjunctions
A conjunction is a word that links words, phrases, or clauses. There are three types of
conjunctions: coordinating conjunctions, correlative conjunctions,
and subordinatingconjunctions.
a. Coordinating Conjunctions
F
A
N B O Y S
for and nor but or yet so
An easy way to remember these six conjunctions is to think of the word FANBOYS. Each of the
letters in this somewhat unlikely word is the first letter of one of the coordinating conjunctions.
Remember, when using a conjunction to join two sentences, use a comma before the
conjunction.
Examples and Sentences Coordinating Conjunctions
CONJUNCTION SAMPLE SENTENCES
for
The boy keeps the lights on, for he is afraid of
and
but
sleeping in the dark.
We have tickets for the symphony and the opera.
The orchestra rehearses on Tuesday, but the
or
chorus rehearses on Wednesday.
Have you seen or heard the opera by Scott
yet
so
Joplin?
I didn’t study, yet I passed the exam.
I wanted to sit in the front of the balcony, so I
ordered my tickets early.
b. Correlative Conjunctions
both...and not only...but also either...or neither...nor whether...or
Remember, correlative conjunctions are always used in pairs. They join similar elements. When
joining singular and plural subjects; the subject closest to the verb determines whether the verb
is singular or plural.
Examples and Sentences Correlative Conjunctions
CONJUNCTIONS
both...and
either...or
neither...nor
SAMPLE SENTENCE
Both my sister and my brother play the piano.
Tonight's program is either Mozart or Beethoven.
Neither the orchestra nor the chorus was able to overcome the terrible
not only...but also
acoustics in the church
Not only does Sue raise money for the symphony, but she also ushers
whether…or
at all of their concerts.
She asked to his husband whether he would go to London or stayed at
home.
c. Subordinating Conjunctions
Subordinating conjunctions, (subordinators) are most important in creating subordinating
clauses. These adverbs that act like conjunctions are placed at the front of the clause. The
adverbial clause can come either before or after the main clause. Subordinators are usually a
single word, but there are also a number of multi-word subordinators that function like a single
subordinating conjunction. They can be classified according to their use in regard to time, cause
and effect, opposition, or condition. Remember; put a comma at the end of the adverbial phrase
when it precedes the main clause.
TIME
CAUSE &
EFFECT
after
because
before since
when now that

OPPOSITION CONDITION

Conjunctions
A conjunction is a word that links words, phrases, or clauses. There are three types of
conjunctions: coordinating conjunctions, correlative conjunctions,
and subordinatingconjunctions.
a. Coordinating Conjunctions
F
A
N B O Y S
for and nor but or yet so
An easy way to remember these six conjunctions is to think of the word FANBOYS. Each of the
letters in this somewhat unlikely word is the first letter of one of the coordinating conjunctions.
Remember, when using a conjunction to join two sentences, use a comma before the
conjunction.
Examples and Sentences Coordinating Conjunctions
CONJUNCTION SAMPLE SENTENCES
for

and
but
sleeping in the dark.

or
chorus rehearses on Wednesday.
Have you seen or heard the opera by Scott
yet
so
Joplin?

I wanted to sit in the front of the balcony, so I
ordered my tickets early.
b. Correlative Conjunctions
both...and not only...but also either...or neither...nor whether...or
Remember, correlative conjunctions are always used in pairs. They join similar elements. When
joining singular and plural subjects; the subject closest to the verb determines whether the verb
is singular or plural.
Examples and Sentences Correlative Conjunctions
CONJUNCTIONS
both...and
either...or
neither...nor
SAMPLE SENTENCE

not only...but also

whether…or
at all of their concerts.
She asked to his husband whether he would go to London or stayed at
home.
c. Subordinating Conjunctions
Subordinating conjunctions, (subordinators) are most important in creating subordinating
clauses. These adverbs that act like conjunctions are placed at the front of the clause. The
adverbial clause can come either before or after the main clause. Subordinators are usually a
single word, but there are also a number of multi-word subordinators that function like a single
subordinating conjunction. They can be classified according to their use in regard to time, cause
and effect, opposition, or condition. Remember; put a comma at the end of the adverbial phrase
when it precedes the main clause.
TIME

EFFECT
