 ^{XI. ANSWER KEYS}

1.      Listening Exercise

The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing

A wolf found (1) great difficulty in getting at the sheep owing to (2) the vigilance of the shepherd and (3) his dogs. But one day it found (4) the skin of a sheep that had been flayed and thrown aside, so it put it on over its pelt and strolled down among the sheep. The lamb that belonged to the sheep, whose skin the wolf was wearing, began to follow the wolf in (5) the sheep’s clothing; so leading the lamb a little apart, he soon made (6) a meal of her, and for some time he succeeded in deceiving the sheep and enjoying (7) hearty meals.

2.      Exercise 2

The Man and the Serpent

A Countryman’s son by accident trod upon a Serpent’s tail, which turned and bit him so that he died. The father in a rage got his axe, and pursuing the Serpent, cut off part of its tail. So the Serpent in revenge began stinging several of the Farmer’s cattle and caused him severe losses. Well, the Farmer thought it best to make up with the Serpent, and brought food and honey to the mouth of its lair, and said to it: “Let’s forget and forgive; perhaps you were right to punish my son, and take vengeance on my cattle, but surely I was right in trying to avenge him; now that we are both satisfied why should not we be friends again?”

“No, no,” said the Serpent; “take away your gifts; you can never forget the death of your son, nor I forget the loss of my tail.”

3.      Exercise – Gap Filling

Please All and You Will Please None

A Man and his son were once going with their Donkey to market. As they were walking along, a countryman passed them and said: "You fools, what is a Donkey for but to ride upon?"

So the Man put the Boy on the Donkey and they went on theirway.  But soon they passed a group of men, one of whom said: "See that lazy youngster, he lets his father walk while he rides."

So the Man had his Boy get off, and got on himself.But they hadn't gone far when they passed two women, one of whom said to the other: "Shame on that lazy lout to let his poor little son trudge along."

The Man didn't know what to do, but at last he took hisBoy up before him on the Donkey.  By this time they had come to the town, and the passers-by began to jeer and point at them. The Man stopped and asked what they were scoffing at.  The men said: "Aren't you ashamed of yourself for overloading that poor donkey with you and your hulking son?"

The Man and Boy got off and tried to think what to do.  They thought and they thought, till at last they cut down a pole, tied the donkey's feet to it, and raised the pole and the donkey to their shoulders.  They went along amid the laughter of all who met them till they came to Market Bridge, when the Donkey, getting one of his feet loose, kicked out and caused the Boy to drop his end of the pole.  In the struggle the Donkey fell over the bridge, and so did The Man and The Boy.

Finally an old man who had followed them said, "That will teach you: Please all, and you will please none.”
