A woman repeated a bit of gossip about a neighbour. Within a few days the

whole community knew the story. The person it concerned was deeply hurt and

offended. Later the woman responsible for spreading the rumour learned that it

was completely untrue. She was very sorry and went to a wise old sage to find out

what she could do to repair the damage.

"Go to the marketplace," he said, "and purchase a chicken, and have it killed.

Then on your way home, pluck its feathers and drop them one by one along the

road." Although surprised by this advice, the woman did what she was told.

The next day the wise man said, "Now go and collect all those feathers you dropped

yesterday and bring them back to me."

The woman followed the same road, but to her dismay, the wind had blown

the feathers all away. After searching for hours, she returned with only three in her

hand. "You see," said the old sage, "it's easy to drop them, but it's impossible to get

them back. So it is with gossip. It doesn't take much to spread a rumour, but once

you do, you can never completely undo the wrong."

Grade IX Students

Now, read the story of an honest woodsman and his axe and you

may find some answers in Task 14. Then, answer the questions by

choosing the correct answers.

An Honest Woodsman and His Axe

There was once an honest Woodsman who lived with

his family in a forest. He worked hard, cutting down trees so

he could sell the firewood. This is how he supported his

family. All day long you could hear the sound of his faithful

axe ringing through the woods.

One day he was cutting down trees near the edge of a

deep pool of water in the forest. With strong, steady strokes

he chopped away until it grew quite late in the day. The

Woodsman was tired, for he had been working since early

morning, and his strokes were not as strong and steady as

they had been. He raised his tired arms high for a final blow and his axe slipped, flew

ou

t of his hands and landed with a ‘

plonk’

into the pool, sinking to the bottom.

The Woodsman cried out, “No! All is lost!” As he stood, wringing his hands,

pulling his hair and weeping, the god Mercury suddenly appeared.

“What is wrong Woodsman?” asked the

god.

The Woodsman wept, “My axe fell

into the water! It is too deep and I cannot get it back! My axe is all I have to make a living

with, and I don’t have enough money to buy a new one. My family will have nothing to

eat.”

Hearing this, Mercury dove with a splash down to the bottom of the pool. When

he surfaced he held in his hand an axe that glinted in the setting sun, for this axe was

made of pure gold! Mercury held up the golden axe and asked, “Is this your axe,

Woodsman?”

The Woodman’s mouth fell open a

nd his eyes grew large with desire as he

looked at the golden axe, but he shook his head. “No. That is not my axe.”

Mercury dove again with a splash down to the bottom of the pool. This time

when he surfaced he held in his hand an axe that sparkled like the silvery drops of water

falling from it, for it was made of pure silver!

“Is this your axe, Woodsman?” asked Mercury.

The honest Woodsman gazed

with amazement at the beautiful silver axe, but again shook his head and said, “No. That

is not my axe. My axe

is just an ordinary old axe with a plain wooden handle.”

Mercury dove down for the third time with a splash, and when he surfaced he

held in his hand

the Woodman’s battered old axe. “Is this your axe, Woodsman?” he

asked.

The Woodsman was so glad his axe h

ad been found! He cried out, “That’s my

axe!” He eagerly took the axe and thanke

d the kind god again and again. Mercury

looked at the Woodman and smiled. “I admire your honesty, Woodsman. And it shall be

rewarded. You may keep all three axes, the gold and

the silver as well as your own.”

And then Mercury disappeared as suddenly as he had come.

The Woodsman gathered the three axes in his arms and hurried home where he

was met by his wife. She was so happy when she saw the gold and silver axes, she cried

out

, “Husband! We’ll never be hungry again!”

Notes:

The text in Task 15 is a narrative text. The text has three main components.

They are the beginning, events of the story, and the end of the story. The beginning

of the story introduces characters, setting, and other general information about the

story. Events of the story tell what happens to the characters. And the end of the

story tells the reader how the problem is solved.

The social function of stories is to entertain the readers.

In pairs, study the following rule.

In the story of the honest woodsman, you find some adjectives and adverbs. Some

adjectives in the story are

honest, tired,

and

ugly

. Some adverbs in the story are

coincidently, suddenly

, and

eagerly.

1.

Adjectives

In grammar, an adjective is a word which modifies a noun or pronoun and giving

more information about what the noun or pronoun refers to.

Example 1: There was an

honest

woodsman.

The word

honest

in the example refers to

house

. It gives information that the

woodsman was honest. Usually it is located just before the noun it refers to.

Example 2: The woodsman was

honest

.

The word

honest

in the example refers to the woodsman. It is located after

to be

.

Sometimes, an adjective is not always a pure adjective. It can be verb+ing or

verb+ed.

2.

Adverbs

In grammar, an adverb is a word which modifies verbs and adjectives. An adverb

indicates manner, time, place, cause, or degree and answers questions such as

how,

when, where,

and

how much

.

A Test for the King

A Folktale from Central Java

There was a small kingdom called Mergosono. Although Mergosono was small,

it was famous because the king was a very good and wise man.

One day, the gods heard about the king’s goo

dness and wisdom. So, they

decided to test him. The king of the gods sent four of his gods to Mergosono to test the

king. At that time, the king’s son, Pangeran Sembara was studying abroad. One of the

gods disguised as Pangeran Sembara and two others as villagers while one disguise as a

villager who was killed by Pangeran Sembara. The two villagers then went to see the

king to tell him about the death of their friend. They said that they saw the prince killed

their friend. “I accept your report. But my son hasn’t returned from his study. I will hold

my judgment until his return. If my son indeed killed your friend then I will give him

the punishment he deserves. But if you lie then I will punish you for ruining my family’s

good name,” said the king.

When the two villagers left, the king called his trusted advisors. He asked for

their opinion about this matter. They all agreed that if the report was true then the prince

should be punished. The king was sad to hear that but he knew he had to uphold the

law.

The next morning the false prince came to see his father. He admitted

killing the villager. So the king decided to execute the prince for his wrong doing.

The next day the prince was going to be hung as his punishment. When the

executioner hanged the prince, suddenly his body disappeared and a voice was heard

descendant stay true and wise.

Don’t be sad. Your son is well and on his way home to

see you.” When the sound was gone, the people of Mergosono yelled with joy. Their

prince was safe and they knew that their king was a wise man. When the prince finally

arrived home, they held a party to celebrate the event.

George Washington and the Cherry Tree

When George Washington was about six years

old, he was made the wealthy master of a hatchet of

which, like most little boys, he was extremely fond. He

went about cutting everything that came his way.

One day, as he wandered about the garden

amusing himself by hacking his mother's pea- sticks. He

found a beautiful, young English cherry tree, of which his

father was most proud. He tried the edge of his hatchet

on the trunk of the tree and barked it so that it died.

Some time after this, his father discovered what had happened to his favourite

tree. He came into the house in great anger and demanded to know who the naughty

person was who had cut away the bark. Nobody could tell him anything about it.

Just then George, with his little axe, came into the room. His father asked him about the

tree. This was a hard question to answer, and for a moment George was staggered by it,

but quickly recovering himself he cried: "I cannot tell a lie, father, you know I cannot tell

a lie! I did cut it with my little axe."

solved.
