Emily had done many things to get ready for her big

performance in the play “Alice in Wonderland.” First, in a

used clothing store, she had found the perfect costume to

wear. Her dress looked just like the one in the book

everyone had been reading. Second, she had practiced and

memorized all her lines. She had worked at reading and

rereading and practiced with all the other actors. She knew

3. ORIGINAL PARAGRAPH

Usually, female kangaroos give birth to one joey at a

time. Newborns weigh as little as 0.03 ounces at birth. After

birth, the joey crawls into its mother’s pouch, where it will

nurse and continue to grow and develop. Red kangaroo

joeys do not leave the pouch for good until they are more

than eight months old.

Paraphrase:

Normally, female kangaroos bring forth each joey in

turn. Infants weigh as meager as 0.03 ounces upon entering

the world. After birth, the joey creeps into its mom's pocket,

where it will attendant and proceed to develop constantly.

Red kangaroo joeys don't leave the pocket for good until

they are over eight months old.
