Tapescript:
One day, I was with my friends. We were having a picnic in a field and I saw something strange. There was a white cat with a pink nose sitting in a tree. There’s nothing strange about that, of course, but it looked like it was eating the leaves in the tree! That was strange! Cats don’t usually eat leaves. “Maybe it’s very hungry,” I thought.
While I was looking at it, the cat got out of tree, jumped down to the ground and walked across the field and sat next to us. Maybe it wanted some of our picnic to eat, but there was nothing for a cat. The cat got up and came close to me. I talked to it and it smiled at me.
Was it a Cheshire Cat I found some biscuits in my pocket and gave them to the cat. Soon, it was eating biscuits and smiling at us. Then, after a while, the cat got up and walked across the field. Maybe it wasn’t hunger any more.
8 Read the story and act it out.
Stories
In the past, not many people could read or write, so people listened to stories. Some stories were popular, and they changed every time someone told them. The stories passed from generation to generation. Finally, someone wrote them down.
For example, in China today people still love old stories like The Monkey King.
Some people say that new stories written in books today are not as entertaining as the old ones. Do you agree
