Question

Passage:

When day came, the Swallow flew down to the river for a bath. A clever man saw

him. ‘That is very unusual!’ he said. ‘That kind of bird, here in winter! I must write that

down!’‘I will go to Egypt tonight,’ thought the Swallow. When the moon came up, he flew

back to the Happy Prince. ‘Can I do anything for you in Egypt?’ he said.

‘Little bird, little bird,’ said the prince, ‘please will you stay with me for one more

night?’

‘My friends are waiting for me,’ answer the bird.

‘Far away across the city’, said the prince,’I can see a young writer in a litle room at

the top of a house. He is sitting at a table that is covered with papers. At his side

there are some dead flowers. He is trying to finish a story. But he is very cold and he

is weak and hungry.’

‘I will wait with you for one more night,’ said the Swallow kindly. ‘ What shall I take to

him?’

‘Take him one of my eyes,’ said the prince. ‘They are made of beautiful blue stones.

The young man can sell it and buy wood and food. He can finish his story.’
