Read the following passage:




On a cold winter night, a mother dog was feeling helpless as she could not find a shelter for her newly born puppies. If she was not able to find any cozy, warm corner, the puppies would die. 



So, she went to her friend who lived in a big, wooden kennel. “My puppies are so cold. Please lend me your kennel for a couple of days,” she requested. Her friend replied, “I do not wish that your puppies should die in the cold. I will lend you my kennel to you for some time.” He went away leaving the kennel and the mother dog, along with her puppies, took shelter there.


After some time, the friend-dog came to get back his kennel. “It’s fine weather now,” he said, “the pups will be healthy.” The mother dog found an excuse and said, “My friend! My puppies can’t walk properly. Where shall I take them? Please wait for a couple of days more.” The friend dog agreed and went away.



After some time, he returned to get his kennel back. The weather was warm and the puppies were fully grown dogs now. The mother dog smiled and said, “Throw us out if you can. My pups are grown and if you try to push us out, they will tear you into pieces.” And the mother dog chased her friend away from his own house.


The friend dog became sad and thought to himself, “How stupid I was. I did not understand the trick of my wicked friend. I generously lent my kennel and now they have driven me out.”

Saturday, May 18, 2024 Class 3's                                      COMPREHENSION I dared not stir out of my castle for days, lest some savage should capture me. However, I gained a little courage and went with much dread to make sure that the footprint was not mine. I measured my foot against it. Mine was not nearly so large. A stranger, maybe a savage, must have been on shore, and fear again filled my heart. I determined now to make my house more secure than ever. I built another wall around it, in which I fixed six guns, so that, if need be, I could fire six in two minutes. Then I planted young trees all around. I feared my goats might be hurt or stolen from me, so I fenced round several plots of ground, as much out of sight as possible, and put some goats in each plot. I did all this, while I lived with a terrible fear in my mind that I might one day meet an enemy. I had lived eighteen y...

A tourist must stay at least 24 hours but for less than one year. There are different types of tourists. First, a domestic tourist is a person who spends at least one night away from their normal home but still within their own country. Some people call this a ‘staycation’.  Then, there are regional tourists. This is a tourist who travels within a certain region.

An international tourist is someone who travels across international borders.
