Unit 5
[Listen and Write]
One fine day, a sly fox saw a crow fly past. Crow settled on the branch of a tree. She had a piece of delicious cheese in her beak.
Fox was hungry and wanted the cheese for himself. He walked to the foot of the tree.
“Dear Mistress Crow,” Fox said in the kindest and the softest voice. “How fine you look today! You have the shiniest feathers and the brightest eyes I have ever seen. You are the most beautiful bird in the forest. I am sure your voice is the sweetest I have ever heard. Sing me one sweet song, and I will call you ‘Queen of all the birds’.”
The happy crow opened her beak to caw. The cheese fell to the ground where it was snapped by Fox.
“Do not trust flatterers!” Fox said to the foolish crow. |
[Memorized Dictation]
A foolish little boy wanted to trick everybody. He shouted that there was a wolf. Some helpful people ran to help him. When the boy saw this, he laughed. He said that they were too trusting. One day, a wolf came. The boy cried for help but no one helped him. |
