Read the text and put in the correct word.
It's early morning on frog pond. As the sun rises, light sparkles on the water  1). All sorts of
pond animals are waking up. A (2) busy day is beginning.  At the edge of The (3) pond, a little green frog sits on a lily pad 4) in the water. He
is hidden here among the (5) floating plants. He keeps very still and very quiet (6).
His big, bulging eyes are watching. He's watching the (7) dragonflies. He's watching for
slugs and worms. He's watching (8) for flies. This little frog is hungry for flies(9).
    Someone else is hungry too. A dragonfly hums around (10) above the water. She is a fierce
hunter, hungry (11) for insects. She hovers near a clump of frogs(12). She can fly in
any direction, even backwards and(13) sideways. Like the frog, she has very
big eyes(14). Suddenly she spots a fly crawling up a rock(15). She swoops down
like an arrow and grabs the (16) fly with her powerful front legs. Gripping it
tightly (17), she munches away at it with her sharp mouth(18) parts.
    The little frog has seen all this before(19). He turns very slightly. He's ready to pounce,
then (20) he keeps very still. He hopes that the Dragonfly (21) will take off towards him
when she's finished eating (22). He hopes she won't notice him sitting
still very (23) green among the pondweed. Soon she flies off(24).
