COMPREHENSION [09]
THE
FOX AND THE LITTLE RED HEN
Once upon a time there was a little
red hen. She lived in a little white house, and she had a little green garden.
Every day she worked in the house and garden.
Near her home lived a family of
foxes. One day Mama Fox said to Papa Fox, “I want a fat hen to eat.” There was
nothing in the pantry for the baby
foxes, so Papa Fox started out to find something for them all.
He ran down the road until he came
to the woods. “Surely I will find something here,” he said, but he found
nothing to eat in the woods. As he came near the little green garden he said,
“Oh, I smell fresh cake. Oh, I smell a little red hen.”
Sure enough, there was the Little
Red Hen eating her cake.
Papa Fox slipped quietly behind her
and grabbed her and put her into the bag on his back; then he ran quickly off
down the hill toward his home.
The Little Red Hen was so
frightened that she could only whisper,
“Oh, dear. Oh, dear. Oh, dear.”
Just then she had to sneeze, and
when she put her claw into her pocket for her handkerchief, she felt her little
scissors. Quick as a flash she took
them out and cut a little hole in the bag. Peeping
out she saw a great hill just ahead all covered with stones. As Papa Fox
stopped to rest on his way up the hill, with his back turned toward her, she
cut a big hole in the bag, jumped out and quickly put a big stone in the bag in
her place.
As Papa Fox kept on up the hill, he
thought the bag was pretty heavy, but he said, “Never mind, she is a fat little
red hen.”
Mama Fox met him at the front door
with all the baby foxes.
“The water is boiling,” said she. “What have you in your bag?”
asked the Baby Foxes.
“A fat, little, red hen,” said Papa Fox.
As he held the bag over the pot, he
said to Mama Fox, “When I drop her in, you clap on the lid.” ox
So he opened the bag. Splash! There
went the boiling water. It spilled all over Papa Fox and Mama Fox and the Baby
Foxes. Never again did they try to catch the Little Red Hen.
