FLAG
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow-
The first flags were probably in China. People flew flags in China over 4,000 years ago.
Each part of the army had its own flag so the soldiers could see their leaders. Early
flags were sticks of wood. They had pictures cut into the wood. Iran had metal flags
about 3,000 years ago. Old Greek coins show pictures of flags. People in Rome also
used flags over 2,000 years ago. People first made flags of cloth about 2,000 years ago
Those flags looked like today's flags. Flags are important at sea. Most ships fly their
own country's flag and the flag of the country they are visiting. When a ship flies only
own flag, it is ready to fight. Every country now has a flag. Every U.S. state has a flag.
Clubs, teams, and schools have flags. The Olympics has a flag. The Olympics flag has
five rings of five colours. Each ring stands for or represents, a continent. It means that
people from five continents – Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, and South Americ
come to play. Railway lines also use flags. Railway flags tell the trains what to do. Foi
example, a red flag tells the train to stop, just like a stop sign. A blue, white, or green
flag tells the train that it can go. A blue flag on the side of a train means someone is
working on the train. It means nobody can move the train.
