Read the article Skara Brae:


Skara Brae is one of the oldest historical sites in Europe, and it stayed hidden for more than 4,000 years. The ancient village of Skara Brae was discovered on the main island of Orkney, in Scotland. A massive storm in 1850 removed the sand that had covered it for thousands of years, exposing the remains of a small village.


Skara Brae is a collection of eight round, stone houses that still have their stone furnishings and even some of the belongings of the inhabitants. The contents can tell us a great deal about how people lived in what is called the Neolithic era, or the last period of the Stone Age. Seven of the eight houses appear to have been family homes, with beds, dressers, fireplaces, and even simple toilets. The eighth house may have been a community workshop. It shows evidence of tool-making and the use of a large fire pit.


How was Skara Brae built, and what, eventually, happened to it? Let's journey back in time through the evidence archaeologists have put together to understand the story of Skara Brae.


The small, stone village was built some time around 3100 BCE. The first villagers dug down into an existing midden heap, or trash heap, to build the foundations of their homes. The garbage helped to insulate and protect the homes. They built their round huts with stones found locally, sticking each piece together with a paste made from ground-up waste and dung.


After the houses were built, the villagers furnished their homes with stone beds, one on each side of the door, a stone dresser, and a fireplace, or hearth. The hearth kept the home warm and allowed the inhabitants to cook their food.


The people of Skara Brae then farmed the surrounding lands, with evidence suggesting that they grew barley and other grains. They kept cows and pigs, and they fished in the ocean for a good part of their diet.


As the number of people grew, the village expanded. Covered tunnels and alleyways were built to connect all the homes. This would have protected people traveling from one house to another from cold winter weather. Because of the connections between the houses and the shared workspace, archaeologists believe that Skara Brae was a close-knit community.


The people made many things, including pottery, stone tools, and bone jewelry. Curiously, no evidence of weaponry was ever found, leading archaeologists to believe that Skara Brae was a peaceful place.


Skara Brae was inhabited for approximately six hundred years, at which point, it was abandoned. Many theories exist about what happened to the people of Skara Brae. One of the most popular theories is that a terrible storm, similar to the one that would uncover the remains of the village in 1850, struck and drove the people from their homes. This is supported by the fact that so many possessions, including valuables like jewelry, were left behind.


Which supporting detail supports the main idea that the lives of the people living in the village of Skara Brae were full of farming, construction, and artistry.

Read the excerpt from the article Amazing Plants:

There are a surprising number of plants that are carnivorous, or feed on meat. One of the most well-known carnivorous plants is the Venus flytrap. This carnivore lives in warm, swampy areas where it feeds on flies and any other insect unfortunate enough to land on one of its round, spiky leaves. The leaves are motion-sensitive, and the slightest touch causes a leaf to snap shut, trapping the prey behind a prison of spikes.

Pitcher plants are another quiet carnivore. The plants are long, pitcher-like tube shapes, with wide bottoms full of water to catch and digest their prey. Pitcher plants use different strategies to attract prey. Some give off sweet smells, while others produce nectar. Pitchers have been known to consume anything from insects to small lizards and rodents.

Read the article Trapped by a Predator:

When I was 12, I went on vacation to the Wilmington, North Carolina area. While there, my family and I went on a hike in the Croatan National Forest, a true coastal forest that is bordered on three sides by water. As I traversed the boardwalk, I caught a glimpse of something pink in my peripheral vision. I stopped and bent down to inspect the mysterious looking specimen. It had long, sharp-looking white teeth and a large, pink mouth. Upon closer inspection, I noticed little droplets of liquid around the rim. Inside its mouth, there were six tiny hairs, three on the top and three on the bottom. While I was examining the unknown object, I saw a fly zoom in and land inside the mouth. I observed as it wandered around the reddish-pink, fleshy surface and brushed against one of the hairs. What happened next seemed like something out of a horror story. All of a sudden, the mouth snapped shut, and the teeth made a prison, trapping the poor fly inside. I witnessed the fly fighting against the spiky teeth, trying to escape, but it was an unsuccessful struggle. When my mother caught up to me on the path, I showed her the slayer, and she explained that the fly eater was the plant called a Venus flytrap. In that moment, I wanted to learn more about this carnivorous flora.

I became a botanist because of that first encounter with the predatory plant. Over the years, I learned so much more about the Dionaea muscipula, better known as the Venus flytrap. For example, the liquid around the rim of its "mouth" is actually a sweet nectar that lures prey. In addition, the six tiny hairs, called trichomes, are like little sensory time bombs. This means when an insect touches a trichome, a timer is set for 20 seconds. If there is a second touch within the 20-second period, the mouth clamps down and traps the prey. The third movement signals the plant's digestive juices to start breaking down the insect. In about ten days, the Venus flytrap reopens and any part of the insect that didn't get digested falls out. It is an amazing process!

Because of my experience in North Carolina all those years ago, I decided to become a botanist and specialize in carnivorous plants. I have studied pitcher plants, sundews, water wheels, cobra lilies, and more. I never bore learning about the different traps, like suction traps and sticky traps, that carnivorous plants use to snare their prey. In fact, you could say I was trapped by the Venus flytrap, that meat-eating predator, when I first laid eyes on it.

What information does the reader learn from Amazing Plants that is missing in Trapped by a Predator?

A description of the author's vacation to North Carolina
A description of the Venus flytrap's round, spiky leaves
The scientific name of the Venus flytrap, Dionaea muscipula
The technical name of the hairs inside the Venus flytrap's mouth
