At the end of this lesson...

Text #1:
Find the word
 'enema'. Put your TEAMS hand up when you find it.
1 One hot evening in Padua they carried him up onto the roof and he could look out over the top 2 of the town. There were chimney swifts in the sky. After a while it got dark and the searchlights 3 came out. The others went down and took the bottles with them. He and Luz could hear them  4 below on the balcony. Luz sat on the bed. She was cool and fresh in the hot night.
5 Luz stayed on night duty for three months. They were glad to let her. When they operated on 
6 him she prepared him for the operating table; and they had a joke about friend or enema. He  
7 went under the anaesthetic holding tight on to himself so he would not blab about anything  
8 during the silly, talky time. After he got on crutches he used to take the temperatures so Luz    9 would not have to get up from the bed. There were only a few patients, and they all knew about 10 it. They all liked Luz. As he walked back along the halls he thought of Luz in his bed.

Text 2: What is the main topic of this paragraph? 
Put your TEAMS hands up when you know it.
We all know what an egg looks like, right? Well, we might know less than we think—bird eggs can be spheres, teardrops and anything in between. An interdisciplinary group of scientists may have made progress in cracking the mystery behind how these different shapes emerged.
A new study in Science shows that differences in flight ability might actually start as early as the egg: birds that take to the skies have more elliptical, asymmetrical eggs, while land-bound birds (like ostriches) have more spherical eggs.
