Python Requests module behaving different in a for loop

I'm trying to do a script which reads a line (URL) in a text file, checks its code_status and then print to the user, however, when using for loop it gives wrong code_status while testing with one URL in the request.get(url) gives the right one.

Problematic code

import requests
with open('test2.txt', 'r+') as arquivo:
        for linhas in arquivo:
                url = requests.get(linhas)
                print url.status_code

Achieves the right code.

import requests         
url = requests.get(URL)
print url.status_code

You guys can test both the txt file and single URL with the following URL: https://api.github.com/user

What am I doing wrong?

Most probably your problem is because of the \n character at the end of each line. this should fix it: 

import requests
with open('test2.txt', 'r+') as arquivo:
        for linhas in arquivo:
                url = requests.get(linhas.strip())
                print url.status_code
