Summative Remidial for Grade 11

Once upon a time, there was a rose who was very proud of its beautiful looks. Its only disappointment was that it grew next to an ugly cactus. Every day, the rose would insult the cactus on its looks while the cactus stayed quiet. All the other plants in the garden tried to make the rose see sense, but it was too swayed by it own good looks.

One summer, the well in the garden grew dry and there was no water for the plants. The rose began to wilt. I saw a sparrow dip its beak into the cactus for some water. Though ashamed, the rose asked the cactus if it could have some water too. The cactus readily agreed and they both got through the tough summer as friends.

What happened to the rose on summer day?

• It started to wilt

• It blooms beautifully

• It had a lot of water

• It looked so good

THE GOLDEN EGGS

He prayed hard to God for help or his family would die of starvation. Few days later an old man, with long grey beard, passed by his house took pity on him. He gave him a goose and said. ″I don’t have any expensive thing to give you and hope this goose will help you to ease your hardship.″

A week later to his most surprise the farmer found an egg in his yard. This was not an ordinary egg. It was a golden egg. He was suddenly overcome with joy. Thereafter, the livelihood had rapidly improved but the farmer had forgotten his earlier hardship. He became lazy, arrogant and spendthrift.

Strangely, the goose only laid one golden egg every six months. The greedy farmer lost his patient and slaughtered his goose thinking there were plenty of golden eggs inside its stomach.Though the very much regretted for his foolishness, it’s already too late
