Two frogs had lived in a village all their lives. They thought they would like to go and see the big city that was about ten miles away. They talked about it for a long time and at last they set off to the city. It was a hot day, and they soon began to feel tired. They had only gone a little way when one said to the other, “we must be nearly there, can you see the city?” “No,” said the other frog, “but if I climb on your back I might be able to see it.” So he climbed up on the back of the other frog to see the city. Now when the frog put up his head, his eyes could only see what was behind. And not what was in the front. So he saw the village they had just left. “Can you see the city?” asked the frog who was below. “Yes,” answered the frog who had climbed up. ”I can see it. It looks just like our village.” Then the frogs thought that it was not worthwhile going any further. They went back and told the frogs in the village that they had seen the city, and it was just like theirs.

                In ancient times, the king placed a boulder on a roadway. Then he hid and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king’s wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it.

                Many loudly blamed the king for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything to get the big stone out of the way. Then a peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After lots of pushing and straining, he finally succeeded. As the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying on the road where the boulder had been.

                The purse contained a lot of gold coins and a note from the king indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The peasant learned what many others never understand.

     When I was a kid, I was fond of flying kites with my friends. We flew kites at the field near my house. I collected many kites with different shapes and sizes. I was very skillful at flying kites, so they could flew high.

     One day, my friends and I had a competition. The one who could fly the highest kite would be the winner. To make my kite more interesting and different from others', I made my own kite. I drew my kite with beautiful and colourful pictures. I also made the tail as interesting as possible.

     During the competition, I tried hard to fly my kite. It flew higher and higher. Unfortunately, the wind blew strongly. I could not handle my kite. I kept on trying to handle my kite, but it was in vain. The string of my kite was broken and my kite flew down. I only stared at the kite sadly.

     Apart from my failure, I still kept my spirit. I was sure that my kite would always fly high.
