One afternoon, a Lion had just finished his meal and decided to take his afternoon nap. The Lion had just closed his eyes, when a Gnat saw him.

Now, this Gnat, though active and young, was also haughty and over-confident. He was extremely daring and he attacked the Lion. The Lion was very angry and woke up with a start. But the Gnat did not stop. He kept stinging the Lion’s nose, eyes and ears. The Lion roared in pain. He tried to crush the Gnat but all his attempts went in vain. The Gnat had no pity on the poor beast.

At last the poor Lion was exhausted and bleeding on the ground. The Gnat, extremely pleased on his victory over the King of the forest, hovered over the spot, praising himself and feeling joyful. His pleasure blinded him so much, that while flying, he suddenly got stuck in a Spider-web. No matter how much he tried, the Gnat could not escape.

Thus, the Gnat who had defeated the mighty Lion became the prey of the Spider

Why did the Lion roar painfully?

Tom ... I just received a phone call from Andi. He said:’Desi’s mother is hospitalized. She got an accident two days ago’.

How does Desi feel at the moment?

Hi Tom. How’s life? We’re going to have a long holiday this summer, aren’t we? What are you going to do? You know, summer is a good time for camping and hiking. We are planning to go to the Devon Mountain as we did before. It’s a nice place for camping and hiking. It’s also a nice place for fishing. There’s a river near the campsite, but I’m not keen on it. At night we’ll sit around the fire and sing songs. Why don’t you join us? It’ll be more fun if you come.

Let me know soon.

Your best friend,

Rajiv

The moral value of the story above is ….

One day long ago, some sailors set out to sea in their sailing ship. One of them brought his pet monkey along for the long journey.

When they were far out at sea, a terrible storm overturned their ship. Everyone fell into the sea, and the monkey was sure that he would drown. Suddenly a dolphin appeared and picked him up.

They soon reached the island and the monkey came down from the dolphin’s back. The dolphin asked the monkey, “Do you know this place?” The monkey replied, “Yes, I do. In fact, the king of the island is my best friend. Do you know that I am actually a prince?”

Knowing that no one lived on the island, the dolphin said, “Well, well, so you are a prince! Now you can be a king!” The monkey asked, “How can I be a king?” As the dolphin started swimming away, he answered, “That is easy. As you are the only creature on this island, you will naturally be the king!”

Where were the sailors when the storm overthrew their ship?

Hi, Ayu!

By the way, we have a project in biology class. It’s about cassava fermentation. We are in the same team, right? Please come to my home to do it next two days.

What is the main idea of the third paragraph?

I stopped at a flower shop to order some flowers to be wired to my mother who lived two hundred miles away. As I got out of my car I noticed a young girl sitting on the curb sobbing. I asked her what was wrong and she replied, "I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother. But I only have seventy-five cents, and a rose costs two dollars."

I smiled and said, "Come on in with me. I'll buy you a rose." I bought the little girl her rose and ordered my own mother's flowers. As we were leaving I offered the girl a ride home. She said, "Yes, please! You can take me to my mother." She directed me to a cemetery, where she placed the rose on a freshly dug grave.

I returned to the flower shop, canceled the wire order, picked up a bouquet and drove the two hundred miles to my mother's house.

Dear Ivan,

How are you? Hope everything is okay with you. I’m all right here.We are going to have the national examination, aren’t we? Are you well prepared for it? Well, to be honest, I just have some difficulties in preparing for it, especially in science. There are extra lessons in my school and I take them all. But, I feel that they don’t help. I’m still confused in solving mathematic problems. I’m just worried that I fail the national examination so that I can’t enter my favorite Senior High School. Do you have any suggestion for me? I really appreciate your help. I look forward to hearing from you.

The boy used to play with apple tree, climb its branches, sleep under its shadow, pluck its apples, etc. Every day he visited the apple tree, and ate some apples. The apple tree was kind to the boy and enjoying spending time together.

One day, the boy joined in school and didn't have a time to spend with apple tree. After several days, the boy came to the tree. The apple tree was so happy to see the boy. It asked the boy to play. Unfortunately, the boy said he was not a child anymore. He didn't want to play with the tree. But he asked another request to the apple tree.

The tree asked what the boy wanted. The boy said he needed toys, but his parents didn't have money to buy it for him.

The tree said, "Dear my boy, I don't have any money to buy it for you, but you can pick my apples, then sell them, get money and buy the toys you want."

The boy went happily to his home after plucking apples. The tree was waiting to see the boy return. But he never came back for many years. The apple tree was sad and it didn't produce any apples anymore.
