One morning, an arrogant fox was chasing a hare. However, he got caught in a trap. Actually, it was his tail that got trapped. He pulled and pulled but couldn’t get free. The tail stayed in the trap.
The fox was very proud of his bushy tail, which he always kept in a good condition. So, he avoided pulling too hard to avoid cutting his tail.
Suddenly the trappers were coming to claim their victim. The fox made one great effort to free his tail. A searing pain followed and then he was free. He ran without looking back even once.
Only then did he realize the truth. Is tail was missing. Most of it at any rate. The bushiest, glossiest part of it.
The fox felt depressed. Then he felt ashamed. What would he tell the other foxes? Oh, the misery of it! Then, he thought that he would persuade them that being tailless was a good thing.
That evening, the foxes’ meeting by the riverside, everyone seemed astonished as the tailless one proceeded to lecture everyone that moving around without a tail was good.
“Friends, being tailless is so much more fun,” he exclaimed and twirled once for effect. “And advantageous. Look at the weight of it! Think how heavy our tails get after a swim. That’s why I got rid of it. It’s soooooo useless. Now I feel free. Really, all of you should cut your tail too,” he added.
“Shut up, will you!” growled another fox. “We know you lost your tail in the trap. I had seen you flee from the hunters. And I’ve brought along the memento.” Saying so he dangled the cut tail in front of everyone. The assembly howled with laughter as the tailless fox slunk away.
Why the fox did not realized that he had lost his tail?
Because he was in a hurry escaping from the trappers
Because he saved the bushiest and glossiest part of the tail
Because he thought that his tail was useless
Because he swam in the river
Because he thought that being tailless was a good thing

How to Treat Cracked Skin
Cracked skin happens usually when our skin becomes way too dry. As our skin dries, it loses flexibility and the pressure of everyday use causes it to crack. These cracks can be painful but they’re also a giant beacon for infections. It’s important to treat cracked skin before you end up with a much more serious health problem. Here are the steps:
1) Start checking for signs of infection
2) Soak your skin with a disinfectant. Start treatment of basic cracks by soaking your skin.
3) Gently exfoliate your skin. Using a clean washcloth, gently rub the affected area. This will remove dead skin cells and allows the products you’ll place on your skin to absorb better.
4) Give your skin a final rinse and then apply a layer of moisturizer
5) If you have time, such as if you can treat your skin overnight or on a weekend, wet dressings may help heal the skin and can at least provide you with greater comfort.
6) For treatment during the day, fill the cracks with liquid or gel “bandage” product, or at least with antibiotic products.
Be patient while the cracks heal. Be sure to keep the affected area clean and covered, to prevent further irritation
What is the purpose of the text above?
To promote the product of skin moisturizer
To retell writer’s experience of treating his/her cracked skin
To discuss the techniques of treating cracked skin
To inform readers how to treat cracked skin

Harry Potter and Philosopher’s Stones
Judged by this first volume, the Harry Potter books are a fine addition to English children’s fantasy literature. Harry Potter, orphaned when his parents are killed by the evil wizard Voldemort, is taken in by his aunt and uncle, who are Muggles – ordinary, non-magical people. Harry is rather out of place there, but things improve greatly for him when goes to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry – except that one of the staff is in league with Voldemort.
Part of the attention of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone comes from the familiar but at the same time exotic setting of an English public school, complete with houses and schoolboy adventures, in which Harry and his friends Ron and Hermione struggle to save the world and win the house cup.
So Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone will be a great Christmas present for kids who haven’t read it yet – and it is a book that adults (at least those without stunted imaginations) can read as well.
