Chapter 10: The Passive
Worksheet 1. Reading: The Invention of the Potato Chip
Read the passage about how a food was invented. Then answer the questions below.
The Invention of the Potato Chip
The potato chip was invented in 1853 by George Crum. Crum
was a Native American/African American chef at the Moon Lake
Lodge resort in Saratoga Springs, New York, USA.
At the time, French fried potatoes were popular all over the country. Chef
Crum cooked French fries at the resort every night. One night a diner
complained that the fries were too thick . So Crum cut the potatoes
thinner and fried them perfectly, but the customer was still unsatisfied and
grumpy .
Crum was annoyed by this grumpy customer, and so he did something to
annoy him: he cut the potatoes very, very thin -- too thin to eat with a fork
–- and fried them. Surprisingly, the customer was delighted with the very
thin potatoes, and asked for seconds and even thirds! In this way, potato
chips were invented … and the rest is history.
Circle T if the statement is true or F if it is false according to the passage.

Worksheet 3. Reading: The Invention of the Popsicle
Read the passage about how a food was invented. Then answer the questions.
The Invention of the Popsicle
The popsicle was invented by an eleven-year-old child, Frank
Epperson, in 1905. Young Frank lived in San Francisco, California.
One cold night, he accidentally left a fruit drink in a cup on his
back porch. He had left a stirrer -– a small stick to stir with – in the drink.
When he found the drink in the morning, it was frozen ! It was solid ice with
the stick in the middle. He took the frozen drink out of the cup and tasted it.
It was delicious! It was a new treat .
Epperson got a patent on his "frozen ice on a stick" many years later, in
1923. His frozen treat was originally called the Epsicle. The Epsicle was later
renamed the popsicle. Epperson also invented the twin popsicle (with two
sticks so it could be shared by two children), the Fudgsicle, the Creamsicle
and the Dreamsicle.

inventor
