Passage:
Tommy and his friends were excited for their field trip to the zoo. They had been learning about different animals in their science class and couldn't wait to see them up close. As they entered the zoo, they saw a sign that said, "Feeding Time: Lions at 2:00 PM." They quickly made their way to the lion enclosure.
When they arrived, they saw a zookeeper preparing to feed the lions. The zookeeper explained that lions are carnivores and eat meat. He threw large chunks of raw meat into the enclosure, and the lions pounced on them eagerly. Tommy and his friends watched in awe as the lions devoured their meal.
