A fox fell into a well and couldn’t get out. At some point, a thirsty goat came along. When it saw the fox in the well, it asked if the water was good to drink. “It’s good,” the fox replied. “It’s the best water I’ve tasted in all my life.” Why not come down and try it for yourself? The goat was so thirsty he didn't think about anything else. So he jumped into the well. Once he'd had enough, he looked around but couldn't see a way out. Then the fox said, “I’ve got a good idea.” You stand on your hind legs and put your forelegs against the side of the well. Then I’ll climb on your back, and from there I’ll step on your horns, and I’ll be able to get out. "And when I'm out, I'll help you out of the well." The goat did as he was asked, and the fox got on his back and climbed out of the well. Then he calmly walked away. The goat called out to him after he left. The fox just turned to him and said, “If you had as much sense in your head as you have hairs in your beard, you wouldn’t have jumped into the well without making sure you could get out again.”

Read the text below to answer question 7-9!

Once upon a time, there was a poor widow who had an only son named Jack. They were so poor that they didn't have anything except a cow. When the cow had grown too old, his mother sent Jack to the market to sell it. On the way to the market, Jack met a butcher who had some beautiful beans in his hand. The butcher told the boy that the beans were worth a lot of money and convinced the boy to sell the cow for the beans.

Jack was happy to bring them. When he told his mother about this, she was so angry that she threw the beans out of the window. When Jack woke up in the morning, he noticed the sun was shining into a pan in his room, but the rest of the room was quite dark and shady. So he hopped up to the window. What did he see? The beanstalk was growing quite close to Jack’s window. He opened the window and jumped to the beanstalk, which looked like a big ladder. He climbed and climbed until he reached the sky. While he was looking around, he saw a very big castle. He was pretty blown away.

Jack then walked along the path leading to the castle. There was a woman with a very long tail at the door. Jack greeted her and asked for the giantess's mercy to give him breakfast, because he was really hungry. Although the giantess was initially reluctant, she eventually gave Jack a slice of bread and cheese, along with a jug of milk. Jack hadn't even finished when the whole house started shaking with the sound of footsteps. "Oh, it's my husband!" the giantess exclaimed. "What on earth am I going to do?" The giantess quickly opened a very big cupboard and hid Jack inside.
