1 Name: Date: June, 2017 Grade 6(A / B / C) Subject: RC Term 3 Revision Sheet Persians Versus Greeks Alexander the Great stood with his army on the western shore of the Tigris River. He and his men marched north from Tyre, crossing acres and acres of blackened land. Darius had had his men burn to the ground the long wheat grass that had been growing there. He had hoped to slow the advance of Alexander and his fighting force. Darius strategy had done little to delay the progress of the Greek forces. They prepared now to walk across the Tigris, and to continue onward toward the village of Mosul. Alexander and his men knew that Darius and the Persian warriors were camped nearby on the plain of Gaugamela. They remained unaware of Darius newest strategy. When Alexander and his men reached the land of Gaugamela, they found that the ground had been burnt down to a flat surface. The Persian chariots of Darius stood in shape, ready to attack across that flat surface. Darius expected his chariots to push themselves forcefully into the Greek forces, with their curved swords ripping at the flesh of both horses and men. The Persian chariots began their rapid drive toward the army of Alexander the Great. The Greek general, having made a quick thought of the situation, ordered the Greek fighters to split apart. This plan left the Persians moving forward, without having anyone to knock down.because they 1

2 traveled at great speed, the Persians could not turn around. Caught between enemy lines, many Persian chariot drivers fell victim to the spears and arrows of their Greek opponents. Darius was not ready to surrender. He spotted places where his men could outflank the Greeks, sneaking around behind the enemy ranks. Some enemy units met the fate that Darius had intended which is getting run over by the Persian chariots. None of this, however, seemed to disturb Alexander the Great. The Greek general ordered his men to form a wedge. The point of the wedge charged directly at Darius. The Persian King fled, leading to a collapse of whatever resistance he had managed to gather. Alexander the Great again arose as the victor. Alexander s first impulse was to direct his men on a chase after the fleeing Darius. He chose, instead, to go south to Babylon, where he allowed his men to have one month of rest. From there Alexander headed his army east, toward the treasures that lay in central Persia. Multiple Choice: 1. Circle the best answer. a. Which of the following tactics did Darius III use? o burning wheat grass above Tyre o having chariots o outflanking the Greeks on the Gaugamela plain o all of the above b. Which of the following helped to insure the victory of Alexander the Great? o having scythed chariots o having the Greek warriors split apart o formation of a wedge o 2 nd and 3 rd answer 2

3 4. The best title for the selection could be o Darius the Great Warrior o The Knight who Saved Guagamela o Tigris River o Alexander the Great Warrior 2. Answer the following questions carefully. a. Why do you think Darius had ordered his men to burn the long wheat grass? b. Where did Alexander the Great and Darius have their first meeting? c. Who lost the battle on the plain of Gaugamela? d. What did Darius order his men to do when he found out that the Persian chariots were surrounded by the Greeks? e. If you were in Darius place, would you escape like he did or no? Why? 3

5 As the sun peaked over the horizon, Andy Allen and Amy Atwater were already headed for the lake. Today was the Lucky Lure fishing tournament, and they wanted to be at their favorite spot early. As their truck rounded the last bend in the road, they spotted the lake. The aqua-blue water was a shiny mirror. What a perfect day for fishing! As quick as a wink, Andy launched the boat in the water while Amy sorted the rods and reels. Andy gunned the engine and the boat shot off like a rocket. But as they came around the corner, Andy and Amy spied another boat at their favorite fishing spot! Their hearts dropped like rocks, and they knew they were in a pickle. Where will we fish? Andy asked Amy. Sit tight, Amy replied. I think I may have another trick up my sleeve. Amy directed Andy to a small cove on the other side of the lake. Lily pads floated like saucers on the water and birds chirped cheerfully all around them. Andy picked up his rod and cast it toward the moss-covered bank. Kerplunk! The lure splashed into the water. Before Andy had time to blink, his line began to zing. He had a fish! Amy! hollered Andy excitedly. Lend me a hand and grab the net! Andy reeled and reeled but the fish fought him tooth and nail. Andy began sweating bullets. He knew the tournament victory would depend on this catch. Andy, you lucky dog, exclaimed Amy. You caught a whale of a fish! You re sure to win the tournament now. But you helped me catch him, replied Andy. We ll share the prize. Amy and Andy zoomed back to the dock to weigh their fish and claim the prize: a Lucky Lure fishing hat and a T-shirt. Wow! What a wonderful day, said Andy as they drove home. But I m exhausted! Me too, Amy said with a yawn. But let s come back tomorrow and see if there are any more whales in that cove!
