  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    Directions For Questions

    Read the passage given below carefully and answer the question that follows.

    A group of frogs was travelling through the forest. Two of them fell into a deep ditch. When the other frogs saw how deep the ditch was, they told the two frogs that they would die. The two frogs ignored the comments and tried to jump out of the pit with all their strength. The other frogs kept telling them to stop. Finally, one of the frogs listened to what the other frogs were saying and gave up. He fell down and died. The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Once again, the crowd of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and just die. He jumped even harder and finally made it out. When he got out, the other frogs said, “Did you not hear us?” The frog explained to them that he was deaf. He thought they were encouraging him the entire time. There is power of life and death in the tongue. An encouraging word to someone who is down can lift them up and help them make it through the day. Be careful of what you say.

  • Question 6

    Directions For Questions

    Read the passage given below carefully and answer the question that follows.

    One day a farmer’s donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried loudly for hours. As the farmer was thinking of something to do, he decided the animal was old and the well needed to be covered up anyway. He thought that it was just not worth it to save the donkey. He invited all his neighbours to come over and help it. They all took a shovel and began to fill the well with soil. At first, the donkey realised what was happening and cried horribly. Then, everyone was surprised when it became quiet. Afterwards, the farmer finally looked down the well and was surprised to see that with every shovel of soil that fell on its back, the animal would shake it off and take a step up on the soil. A little later the donkey came up over the edge of the well and ran away. In life, we should never give up even when everybody else loses hope.
