The Three Brothers
Read the passage. Then answer the questions
Once upon a time there were three brothers living sil alone in afaraway land
Their names were: Strong Arm, Wise Mead and Good Heart Strong Am spent all
his time very happily running, jumping, throwing spears and swimming in the
river Wise Mead too was very happy. He spent all his time reading, writing
learning, and making things with his hands, Good Meart was the happiest of all
He spent all his time helping his brothers and cooking their food.
But as they grew older, the three brothers began to wonder whather they were
really completely happy. So one day the Queen of the Good Spirits decided to
teach them something. She changed herself into a ile girl, and sat on the top
branch of a great silk cotton tree that no one could ever climb, calling Help
Meip
Good Heart was always ready to help anyone in trouble and he looked up and
saw the little girl. But how could he get her down? He didn't know. So he asked
his brothers for help. Wise Head thought about the problem. He worked out the
height of the tree, made a long piece of thin string, and tied a stone to one end of
Then he told Strong An to throw the stone over the highest branch When the
stone fell to the ground again, the string was right over the branch. Then Wise
Head tied a long thick rope to the string, and pulled the other end of the sing
until the rope too went right over the branch and down again. But Wisad
couldn't climb the rope himself. He had to get Strony Amm's help game
Strong Arm climbed up the rope, and brought the little girl safely to the ground
The three brothers all felt wonderfully happy because that they had saved the
the girl. They laughed, and danced and sang. And just at that moment, the
gir became the Queen of the Good Spirits once again, and thus is what she said
Now you have learnt that being only strong or only wise or only good is not the
best thing The best thing is to be strong and wise and good
So the three brothers lived happily all their life, doing things together, and joining
goodness with wisdom and strength. And their names became mixed up and
they became known by everyone as Wise Arm, Good Head, and strong Heart
