Story about The Lion and the Mouse.

The Lion and the Mouse.

Once when a Lion was asleep, a little Mouse began running up and down upon him. This soon wakened the Lion, who placed his huge paw upon him and opened his big jaws to swallow him. "Pardon, O king!" cried the little mouse, "Forgive me this time. I shall never repeat it and I shall never forget your kindness. And who knows, but I may be able to do you a good turn one of these days?" The Lion was so tickled at the idea of the Mouse being able to help him, that he lifted up his paw and let him go.

Sometime later a few hunters captured the King Lion and tied him to a tree. They went in search of a wagon to carry him on. Just then the little Mouse happened to pass by, and seeing the sad plight in which the Lion was, ran up to him and soon gnawed away the ropes that bound the King of the Beasts. "Was I not right?" said the little Mouse, very happy to help the lion.

Little friends may prove great friends.

Little Bo-peep.

 Little Bo-peep.


Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep,

And can't tell where to find them;

Leave them alone, and they'll

come home,

Bringing their tails behind them. 

Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep,

And dreamt she heard them 

bleating;

But when she awoke, she found it

a joke,

For they were still all fleeting.

Then up she took her little crook,

Determined for to find them;

She found them indeed, but it

made her heart bleed,

For they'd left their tails behind

them.

It happened one day, as Bo-Peep

did stray

Into a meadow hard by,

There she espied their tails, side

by side,

All hung on a tree to dry.

She heaved a sigh and wiped her

eye,

And over the hillocks she raced;

And tried what she could, as a

shepherdess should,

That each tail be properly placed.

Paragraph on My pet.

 My pet.


I have a pet dog named Bobo and he is three years old. He belongs to the Dobermann Pinscher breed. He is black in colour. He loves playing with the ball and the of us spend a lot of time. He also accompanies me in my morning walks. He is very obedient and takes my instructions without any complaints. The sight of any stranger brings out the soldier in him and he starts barking ferociously, to scare him away. 

Bobo has wonderful toilet habits and loves to be bathed and groomed regularly. He normally eats vegetarian food and once a week, I feed him meat. He also relishes bread, biscuits and cakes. Bobo's presence has added meaning to my life. He has not only given me a friend to be cared by and to care for, but also has made me a more responsible and mature individual.

Essay on My ambition in life.

 My ambition in life.


Every person has his own dream or ambition in life. Someone wants to become a soldier, someone a doctor, some an engineer or a politician and so on. Some others aspire for the careers of authors, actors or singers. But my ambition is to become a police officer in my future life. In the drill class in my school, I was very serious, and always tried to follow and learn the rules of parade as perfectly as possible because I wanted to become a member of the police force. A police officer, as far as I know, has to be disciplined, honest and maintain the law and order in the society. 

He is also expected to possess an attitude of help and rescue towards the deserving cases with a selfless mind. When I grow and become a police officer, my motto will be to serve the society with an impartial attitude by saving the distressed persons and punishing the culprits. I will definitely try to infuse the sense of duty and essence of discipline into the minds of the common man in the society. I promise not to misuse my power and soil my hands with the dust of corruption. I shall obey my superiors and give protection to my subordinate staff. That is how I shall try to prove my self as a perfect police officer. My father is a senior officer in the police force. He is and ideal example before my eyes. I want to follow his footsteps in my future life.

Short story on- The Two Goats.

 The Two Goats.


Over a river there was a vary narrow bridge. One day a goat was crossing this bridge. Just at the middle of the bridge he met another goat. There was no room for them to pass. "Go back," said one goat to the other, "there is no room for both of us". "Why should I go back?", said the other goat. "Why should not you go back?" "You must go back", said the first goat, "because I am stronger than you." "You must go back", said the first goat, "You are not stronger than I', said the second goat.



"We will see about that', said the first goat, and he put down his horns to fight. "Stop!", said the second goat. "If we fight, we shall both fall into the river and be drowned. Instead I have a plan- I shall lie down, and you may walk over me. "Then the wise goat lay down on the bridge, and the other goat walked lightly over him. So they passed each other, and went on their ways.


At the Zoo.

 At the Zoo.


First I saw the white bear,

then I saw the black;

Then I saw the camel with

a hump upon his back;

Then I saw the grey wolf, with

mutton in his maw;

Then I saw the wombat waddle in

the straw;

Then I saw the elephant a-waving of

his trunk;

Then I saw the monkeys-mercy, how 

unpleasantly they-smelt!

Essay about Threat to forests.

 Threat to forests.


Forests have been endangered in many ways. Continuous climatic changes have become a series threat to forests causing severe damages. Increasing heat of the atmosphere has resulted in a scarcity of water in forest. This has made forests more vulnerable to insects and pests.

The warming of the atmosphere also paves the way to wild fires. Wild fires destroy large areas of forest cover sending out a lot of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Lots of forests areas obviously reduces the capacity to absorb carbon dioxide and badly affects the forest productivity.

Various human activities, too, have threatened the existence of forests. Traditional farming methods, like Chena cultivation, expanding of villages and farm land, and clearing forests for development projects have reduced the forest cover. 

If we do not take effective measures to conserve forest areas, there will only be grasslands instead of forests.
