A Man and a Parrot


A man had a parrot. It was a very beautiful bird and every day the man talked to it.

"Pretty Polly," he said. "You are a pretty Polly."

"Pretty Polly," the parrot said. "You are Pretty Polly."

Every day the man spoke new words to the parrot "Hallo" he said, and "Goodbye."

One day the parrot was not in its cage. It was flying about the room. The man came into the room and saw the parrot. "What are you doing?" he said.

"What are you doing?" the parrot said.

The man laughed. Then he went out to visit his friends.

That evening a thief came to the house. He walked round the house and looked into the windows. There was no one at home. The thief broke open the door and entered the house. First he went into the sitting room. In the sitting room he found some bowls and vases. He put them into a sack. Then he went into the bedroom. In the bedroom he found a gold watch and some money. He put these into the sack, too. He stole many things from the house and put them into his sack.

The sack was soon full. The thief put it over his shoulder and walked to the door. He opened the door and looked out. These was no one there.

"What are you doing?" a voice said.

The thief jumped high into the air and dropped his sack. Then he ran out of the house and down the road.

"What are you doing?" the voice said again: "Pretty Polly. Hallo, Goodbye. What are you doing?"

A Countryman and a Snake A countryman's son stepped on a snake's tail accidentally. The tail suddenly turned and hit him so that he died. The father was very angry so that he cut off part of the snake’s tail. Then, the snake in revenge stung several of the farmer's cattle. It caused him great loss. However, the farmer decided to stop the fight with the snake. He brought food and honey to the mouth of its lair, and said to it, "Let's forget and forgive. Perhaps you were right to punish my son, and take revenge on my cattle, but surely I was right in trying to revenge him. Now that we are both satisfied, why should not we be friends again?" "No, no," said the snake. "Take away your gifts. You can never forget the death of your son, nor I the loss of my tail. Injuries may be forgiven, but not forgotten.” (http://www2.jogjabelajar.org/web2009/smp-bing/09_animal_story/mat1/task2.htm)

Amelia grew some roses. She's a nature lover. One day Amelia closed her book. She felt tired after studying hard. She stood by the window. She could see the mountain from there. It was a beautiful bluish green. "How wonderful it would be if I could reach the top of that mountain without climbing." "If you want to fly up there, follow me," said a soft voice. Amelia was surprised. "Who are you? Why did you come in without permission?" "My name is Yuli. My home is a bit far from here. I want to be your friend, Amelia," said the girl. "You know my name," said Amelia. "I often hear your mother calling you," Yuli answered. She reached out her hand to Amelia. Amelia shook Yuli's hand. "Why is your hand so cold?
