The following text is for question number 55 to 58
Once upon a time, there was a good old woman who lived in a little house. She had in her garden a bed of beautiful striped tulips.
One night she was wakened by the sounds of sweet singing and babies laughing. She looked out of the window. The sound seemed to come from the tulip bed, but she could see nothing.
The next morning she walked among her flowers, but there were no signs of any one having been there the night before.
On the following night she was again wakened by sweet singing and babies laughing. She rose and stole softly through her garden. The moon was shining brightly on the tulip bed, and the flowers were swaying to and fro. The old woman looked closely and she saw, standing by each tulip, a little fairy mother who was crooning and rocking the flower like a cradle. While in each tulip-cup lay a little fairy baby laughing and playing.
The good old woman stole quietly back to her house, and from that time on she never picked a tulip, nor did she allow her neighbours to touch the flowers.
The tulips grew daily brighter in colour and larger in size, and they gave out a delicious perfume like that of a rose. And every night the little fairy mothers caressed their babies and rocked them to sleep in the flower-cups.
The day came when the good old woman died. And the tulip bed was torn up by folks who did not know about the fairies, and parsley was planted there instead of the flowers. But the parsley whitered, and so did all the other plants in the garden and from that time nothing would grow there.
But the good old woman’s grave grew beautiful, for the fairies sang above it, and kept it green; while on the grave and all around it there sprang up tulips, daffodils and violets, and other lovely flowers of spring.

THE WOLF AND THE LAMB
A stray Lamb stood drinking early one morning on the bank of a woodland stream. That very same morning a hungry wolf came by farther up the stream, hunting for something to eat. He soon got his eyes on the Lamb. As a rule Mr. Wolf snapped up such delicious morsels without making any bones about it, but this Lamb looked so very helpless and innocent that the Wolf felt he ought to have some kind of an excuse for taking its life.
"How dare you paddle around in my stream and stir up all the mud!" he shouted fiercely. "You deserve to be punished severely for your rashness!"
"But, your highness," replied the trembling Lamb, "do not be angry! I cannot possibly muddy the water you are drinking up there. Remember, you are upstream and I am downstream."
"You do muddy it!" retorted the Wolf savagely. "And besides, I have heard that you told lies about me last year!"
"How could I have done so?" pleaded the Lamb. "I wasn't born until this year."
"If it wasn't you, it was your brother!"
"I have no brothers."
"Well, then," snarled the Wolf, "It was someone in your family anyway. But no matter who it was, I do not intend to be talked out of my breakfast."
And without more words the Wolf seized the poor Lamb and carried her off to the forest.

The following text is for question number 65 to70
Later that day, after he had left the men digging for gold, John stopped at the edge of a waterfall. He cupped his hands in the icy water. But as he leaned forward to drink, a reflection which he thought was a face caught his eye. Someone was behind him.
John spun round. He was all alone. But he trusted his instincts, someone was definitely watching him. He leapt across the stream and disappeared behind the falls where he thought he would be safe and waited. Then, with his gun ready to fire, he leapt out onto a rock and took steady aim – and hardly believed what he saw. He hardly knew what he expected, but the sight was amazing. It was a young woman! She had dark eyes, and her long black hair shone in the dappled light. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen! He instantly lowered his gun.
Pocahontas stood, equally shocked and still, except for the wind that blew her hair across her face and neck. She was staring back at the man who’d been in the tree – the man with yellow hair that glinted like sunlight and eyes as blue as a robin’s egg. Slowly John Smith removed his helmet and stepped toward Pocahontas.
“It’s all right,” he said. “I’m not going to hurt you.”
She had not moved since she’d seen him. She quickly turned and ran.
“No, wait, please,” he called after her. “Don’t run off.”
Pocahontas ran to the riverbank, thankful that her canoe was in sight. She had hidden it there in case she needed to get away quickly. John Smith came after her and asked, “Who are you?”
“I do not understand,” said Pocahontas.
“My name is John Smith,” said John.

The following text is for question number 71 to77
THE HERON, THE FISH AND THE CRAB
Far away in the mountains, there was a small, quiet lake. The fish lived in the lake were very happy until a heron came to live nearby. With his long beak, he caught some of the fish everyday and ate them. As soon as a fish swam too close to the surface of the water, the heron caught it.
But time passed, and the heron became old and too slow to catch many of the fish. So he thought a trick.
“ What a pity, my beautiful fish, that you don’t know of the danger that is so near,” he said loudly.
“ What danger is there - except your sharp beak ?” asked the fish from a safe distance.
“ That is not true,” said the heron as he smiled to himself. “ Today I heard the villagers say they were going to empty this lake and take all the fish out.”
When the fish heard this, they were very frightened. “ We will all die. This is the end of the world.”
“ Don’t give up hope,” said the heron. “ I’ll help you. There is another lake on the other side of this mountain. It has clear water and is even bigger than this lake. If you like, I’ll carry you over there on my back.”
The silly fish had now forgotten the sharp beak of the heron and were glad that he could help them.
“ I must do it slowly as I am old. I can only take a few of you each day,” said the heron, feeling happy that his plan had worked.
Everyday, he took two or three fish out of the lake and flew away with them over the mountain.
A rather clever crab also lived in the lake. He didn’t trust the old heron. One day, he sharpened his claws and then asked to be taken to the new lake. He crawled onto the heron’s back and up they went. When they were high above the mountain, the heron suddenly dived down and tried to throw the crab off his back. But the crab held on firmly with its legs. They passed a stone which was covered with fish bones. Immediately, the crab knew where the bones came from.
“You dreadful creature !” he said to the heron. “ You cheated the fish and you brought them here and ate them.”
Then he pinched the heron’s back with his sharp claws and pulled off the feathers from the heron’s neck. The wounded heron returned to the ground at once and the crab crawled away.
When the crab returned to the lake, he told the fish what had happened. He told them about the pile of bones he had seen on the rock. Then the fish saw how foolish they had been and they thanked the crab for saving their lives.
Once again, the lake became quiet and peaceful and the heron never came back again.
