The water poured down on Johnstown, flooding the river, its tributaries, and the
valley.
Johnstown lay on a floodplain, yet its people weren't ready for a flood. They had
not set up levees. Levees are strong walls that prevent
damage in times of flood.
At 4:07 P.M., the river crested as tons of water came
churning into Johnstown. The flood wiped out
whatever was in its path. Stores, homes, barns, trains,
cattle, and hundreds of people were swept into the
swirling tide.
There was no time to raise an alarm. The water was
coming too fast. People swam, grabbed tree branches
to float on, or ran for the hills to escape the torrent.
Victor Heiser, trapped in his floating barn, scrambled
onto its roof. There he held on for dear life as the barn rode one of the river's swift
tributaries. He ended up in the town of Kernville, trembling and worn out but alive and

safe.
The next day, June 1, people all around the United States learned about the
Johnstown flood. The town had suffered a lot of damage, and people yearned to
help. Volunteer workers, food, clothing, and dollars poured in.
In Washington, D.C., Clara Barton heard the news. She was the leader of the newly
formed Red Cross. She and fifty doctors and nurses rushed to Johnstown. For the

18

Liceo Naval “Almirante Guise”
first time, the Red Cross set up shelters to take care of flood victims. They fed them and
gave them somewhere to stay until their homes were fixed.
Rain fell on Johnstown for forty more days. Workers slogged around in deep mud,
taking care of all the homeless people.
At last the sun came out. Work on new-businesses and homes could get started. The
work lasted for five years, but in time Johnstown came back to life.
Today, visitors to Johnstown do not see the terrible damage. Old newspapers are all
that tell of the worst flood ever in the United States.

In writing a story, an article, or a book, an author has a purpose. An author’s
purpose can be to entertain, to inform, or to persuade.
What do you think the author’s purpose is in “The Johnstown Flood”? and
why?

An author’s perspective is his or her view of something. It shows what the author
values, and it expresses his or her opinions. One way of figuring out an author’s
perspective is to make a chart of story events. Notice how the following events in “The
Johnstown Flood” show the author’s perspective about disasters.

GERUNDS: “ing” form
Prepositions are words like: of, in, at, about, for, with, by, up, down, from.
If you use a verb after a preposition, you usually have to use the –“ing” form.

Examples:
 Instead of using a pen, you can use a computer.
 Are you interested in learning about computers ?
 The only way you can learn is by using a
computer.

If you want to use a verb as a noun you usually have to use the –“ing” form
also.

Examples:
 Swimming is good for our health.
 Smoking is bad for our health.
 Studying a little every day is much better than
study a lot a day before the exam.
 Being kind to others is being kind with ourselves.
 Traveling without money is like snapping photos
without film.

Special Verbs: VERBS + “-ING”


Some verbs in English are “special”. The verb after them usually has “-ing” at the
end. Most of these verbs are about likes and dislikes or about starting and
stopping.

Examples:
 I like eating chocolates.
 He hates playing basketball.
 I love being with my family.
 She doesn’t mind going to the cinema.
 We dislike watching TV for many hours.
 They enjoy reading good books.
 She started learning French one year ago.
 He stopped smoking five years ago.

29
Este material educativo es para uso exclusivo de los alumnos del Programa de Educación a Distancia del
Liceo Naval “Almirante Guise”
“-ING” CLAUSES
You can use an “-ing” clause to describe a person, place or thing.

Examples:
 The boy sitting next to me is called Fred.
 The wall running through China is called “The
Great Wall”.
 The bus standing at the bus stop leaves in five
minutes.

Usually, the “-ing” clause takes the place of a relative clause.

The boy sitting next to me....... = The boy who is sitting next to me......…
The wall running through ....... = The wall that runs through China......….
The bus standing at the ........... = The bus that is standing at the…….. .....

Relative Clauses

You can make one sentence from two ones by using a Relative Clause.
A relative clause gives details about the subject of a sentence. You can use “that”,
“which”, and “who” in relative clauses.

You use “who” with people:


 The people who live next door play loud music
every night.
 The teacher who taught us last year is in
another school now.

And “which” for things:


 The book which I left on the bus is very
expensive.
 The puppy which he bought is a Doberman.

You can often use “that” instead of “which” or “who”.


 The people that came to school yesterday were
building a new wall.
 The book that she posted hasn’t arrived yet.

Note:
You can often find relative clauses in definitions:
 A dictionary is a book which explains the
meanings of words.
 An archaeologist is a person who digs up things
from the past.

Think Before You Act!


You are about to read a story titled "Think Before You
Act!" Read the story fact sheet, and think about the
meanings of the words in dark type.

Who is in the story:


Roxann, Roxann's mom, Elmore Coleman, Roxann's cousin Kristen
What Kristen reads in Roxann's letter:
Roxann had to do a class project with Elmore, who behaves in an odd way. Roxann
was in despair about having to work with Elmore. Roxann kept telling him, "Think
before you act," but Elmore couldn't seem to follow her instructions.
Later, Roxann and her pals went skating on a pond. Elmore was there treading on
the frozen pond with his dog. In a game, Roxann was at the end of a line of skaters.
When the line got taut, Roxann got whipped to a part of the pond that was not solid.

By Charlene Norman illustrated by David Clar

Roxann's mom tucked a pillow beneath Roxann's swollen leg.


"How could you have been so reckless, honey?" she asked. "I give you the same
instructions every time you leave to go skating. I say, 'Skate on the far side of the pond,
away from the spring.' I say 'Stay with your friends—don't skate alone.'"
"I started out that way, Mom, but then things just happened too fast," said Roxann.
Roxann's mom smiled and hugged her. "I also always say, 'Think before you act.'"

After her mom left, Roxann picked up her notepad and pen and began writing to her

cousin.

First, he put a big sheet of cardboard in his lap and cut it up into
four small sheets. Not a very smart idea—he cut off the bottom of his
vest, too. I said, "Elmore, didn't you realize that
could happen? You need to think
before you act." Next, he set out
our charcoal samples and
then forgot and rubbed his
chin. He had a fine black beard for
the rest of the day. Kids giggled and called him
Blackboard. I said, "Elmore, didn't you realize you
had charcoal all over your hands? Next time, think
before you act."

39

Liceo Naval “Almirante Guise”
Then we painted a coal mine on our display board. Elmore was so proud of how
good it looked that he clapped his hands—while still holding his paintbrush! Of course
this splashed paint from his brush into my hair. I was
a mess. He's such a nuisance ! By this time I was in despair. I put my hands on my hips,
gave him a stare, and said, "Elmore, PLEASE think before you act!"
After class I went skating with several of my friends. A lot of the pond is frozen
solid, but not the part where the spring feeds in.
Elmore showed up with his cute little dog. He said he was going to teach it how to
skate. He'd taped plastic bags on his
pup's little feet. I watched the two of
them treading with careful, awkward
steps on the pond. What was Elmore
thinking?
I left to play Crack-the-Whip. All
the kids were already in line, so I got on
the end. One strong whip, and SNAP! I
spun off like a rocket, full-speed on
course for the dangerous spot. I couldn't
stop!
The thick, frozen slab tapered to the thinness of a windowpane. CRACK! it broke,
and SPLASH ! down I went!
I popped up, soaking wet and chilled to the bone. The weak current from the spring
made treading water difficult, but I had to keep trying. As I thrashed around, J banged
my leg with my skate. It's still sore and swollen.
It seemed as if I struggled for a long time, screaming for help. I was beginning to
despair, when up ran Elmore's little pup, dragging a rope made out of clothes! He was
little enough to walk out where the kids would have
broken through.
It was next to impossible to hang on when the rope
went taut, but somehow I did it. With Elmore yelling
instructions, my pals pull me out!
Of course I thanked them all. The kids said Elmore
should get a medal for his good
thinking. Elmore blushed and said I
was the one who had coached him to think before acting. Then he
put his coat around me and rushed me home to Mom.
Maybe it was a good thing I had to do that project with Elmore!
So, what’s new with you?
