Unit 4 Assessment Passage 1A

The Finest Present

by David R. Collins

“Get away from here, you little pest! Shoo!”

“How’s the picture coming along, boy? Think you can finish it before the holidays?”

“Sure hope so, Doc. I’d work a lot faster if this silly rooster of mine would stop pecking at my drawing stand.”

“Maybe he thinks he’s a woodpecker,” the old man laughed back. “Let’s take a rest for a minute. This horse of mine doesn’t get tired of standing up, but I sure do.”

“Ma fixed us a special batch of lemonade. I’ll go get it.”

As the slim, barefooted boy scampered across the barnyard, ducks, chickens, and two spotted cats dashed out of his way. The old man sat down on the back porch. In a few moments the boy came out carrying two tall glasses of lemonade.

“This’ll make you feel sassy,” the boy beamed. “That’s what Pa always says about Ma’s lemonade since she makes it so sour.”

“Well, I think this lemonade has a fine taste to it.” The boy and the man sat and drank their lemonade.

“I have never seen such a warm November here in Missouri,” Doc said. “There’s not a speck of snow.”

“I’m glad there hasn’t been any. Gives me more time to draw outside.”

“You sure do like to draw, don’t you? Well, I think it’s a fine way for a young boy to keep out of mischief. Yes, we’re all glad that you moved out here from Chicago. Your pa’s a fine contractor; he builds a good, sturdy building. And your ma, she makes awful sassy lemonade.”

“Want some more?”

“No, let’s get the picture done. Mrs. Sherwood would love to see that picture. She hasn’t been feeling too well lately, but I think seeing that horse sketched out-well, that might be just the medicine she needs. She loves that animal as much as I do.”

The boy worked faster now. Time was running out. The winter snowstorms would soon arrive. Often the snow made prisoners of the farmers, shutting them off from the rest of the world.

“I’ll be headed home now,” the old man said. “The sun’s almost gone, anyway.”

“OK, Doc. I think one more session will do it.” The boy nodded. “I just have to finish a few more shadows and do the horse’s eyes.”

“Glad to hear it, boy. Thank your ma for the tasty lemonade. See you tomorrow.”

But the mild days had run out. During the night, a freezing rain smothered the countryside. On top of that came giant drifts of snow. Days became weeks as the boy waited impatiently for a warm sun to thaw the frozen earth. But the thaw didn’t come.

Slide4

As the holidays approached, the boy grew more and more worried. He begged his parents to let him go to Doc’s farmhouse. “He wants the drawing for a present for his wife because he thinks it might make her feel better. I would just need one session.”

“We can’t let you go,” his mother answered. “Some of these drifts are over your head.”

Sadly the boy returned to his room, gazing hopelessly at the unfinished sketch.

It wasn’t until a week before Christmas that the snow began to melt. By Christmas Eve, much of the

snow had melted, but a bitter wind blew fiercely against the farmhouse.

“Let me try to make it to Doc’s house,” the boy begged. “I have to finish the picture for Doc. He’s got to have it tomorrow.”

“But this wind will blow you away,” his mother argued.

“Please may I try?”

The boy’s father and mother looked at each other. “Well, go ahead, but bundle up,” the boy’s father

f

inally nodded, “and if the wind is too fierce...”

“I’ll come back if I can’t get through. I promise.”

Quickly the boy hurried to his room and put on his heaviest clothes. With great care, he wrapped the picture and put his best sketching pencils in a wooden box. Bravely he plunged out into the driving wind. Flakes of snow stung his skin as the boy crossed the barnyard. His eyes watered and his feet could scarcely be pulled from the ground. He paused for a moment against the barn,

regripped

his picture and box of pencils, and started again. He had only gone a few steps when a violent gust of wind grabbed his box of pencils and hurled them through the air. Another gust of air threw him back against the side of the barn. He remembered his promise. Sadly, he stumbled back to the farmhouse.

That evening was a happy time for the rest of the family. They sang, popped corn, and played games. The boy tried to be happy, but he could not forget the drawing.

Sensing their son’s disappointment, his mother and father tried to cheer him up. “You mustn’t be this unhappy. Doc Sherwood will understand.”

“But I only had the eyes of the horse and a few shadows left. Just one more day and I would have finished.”

“Couldn’t you add those things with what you remember?” his father asked.

In his mind, the boy tried to recall the scene. “I don’t know if I could or not.”

“You won’t know unless you try,” his father suggested.

Eagerly, the boy ran to his room and took out the picture. He closed his eyes and tried to

recreate the horse standing before him. Digging a lone sketching pencil from beneath his bed, he slowly added the shadows to the picture. “But how did the eyes look?” he wondered. He just couldn’t remember. Finally, he put his pencil down and joined the rest of the family.

“It’s no use,” he said. “I just have to see those eyes to be able to draw them.”

Slide5

“Well, why can’t you make the eyes of the horse as you think Doc would

like

them to be? You want the picture to make him happy and please his wife. You make happy eyes on so many of the animals you draw. Draw these eyes the way you feel they

should

be,” his mother replied.

The boy thought about what his mother had said. He remembered all the wonderful afternoons with Doc-all the laughter. Even the horse seemed to be laughing with them. Slowly the boy began sketching. Finally, he put his pencil down and crawled into bed. A warm sunrise greeted the family the next morning. By midafternoon, the wind had died and the snow was fast turning into giant puddles. The boy wrapped his picture and made his way down the muddy road to Doc’s farmhouse.

“Why, bless my soul!” the old mad shouted. “Martha, we have company.” He helped the boy with his boots and coat. A small woman with a dark blue shawl welcomed him into the parlor.

“Sorry we had to postpone our sessions,” Doc Sherwood smiled. “And you were just about done with the picture.”

“Well, I...I wanted to...to finish it myself-so you would have it today,” the boy stammered. “I tried to remember the eyes as best as I could. Ma said to sketch them the way I felt them. You...you probably won’t like the picture, but I brought it anyway.”

“Well, by all means, let’s see it.” Doc grinned. As the boy unwrapped the picture, his face felt hot. He had a sudden urge to run from the room. But it was too late.

He faced his picture, then turned it around so Doc and his wife could see. For several moments, there was no sound in the room. The boy stared blankly at the back of the picture, unable to face his hosts.

“I...I can try again. I shouldn’t have tried to...”

The boy stopped as he noticed the tears in Mrs. Sherwood’s eyes.

“It’s so beautiful, so beautiful,” Mrs. Sherwood murmured. “How could such a small boy do something so perfect?”

It’s the finest picture I’ve ever seen,” Doc Sherwood announced. “And the finest present we could have had.”

“You really think it’s all right?” the boy questioned. “You think the eyes are all right?”

“Oh, the eyes are so warm, so happy,” Mrs. Sherwood smiled.

“Yes, you’ve done yourself proud, boy,” Doc Sherwood exclaimed, as he took the picture and placed it over the fireplace mantel. “But say, you forgot something here.”

“I...I did?”

“I’m no artist, but I know one thing. An artist signs his own work.”

“But I...I’m no artist,” the boy shook his head.

“Oh, yes,” Mrs. Sherwood said softly. “You’re an artist with your hands, and more important, with your heart.”

The boy knew he couldn’t refuse. With a trembling hand, he printed his name.

Walt Disney.

Unit 4 Assessment Passage 2A

Deer Mouse and Tiger

a Southeast Asian tale

Retold by A. J. Fowler

Deer Mouse was a small animal, but he was very clever and quick-witted. He was walking through the woods one day looking for some roots to eat. Just then, Tiger came up to him and declared he was going to eat him for lunch. Deer Mouse was a little frightened, but he quickly came up with a plan.

“I’m sorry, Tiger, you cannot eat me because I have to guard the king’s pudding,” Deer Mouse said as he pointed to a puddle of mud nearby. “It is the best in the world, and I must protect it.”

Tiger became very curious. He wanted to know what the king’s pudding was like. Finally Tiger convinced Deer Mouse to let him have one taste.

“Well, okay, Tiger. But let me run away from here so I will not be blamed,” said Deer Mouse. And with that, Deer Mouse scurried off into the woods.

Tiger excitedly took a big bite of the pudding. “Yuck! Ick!

Bleck

! This is nothing but mud! Roooooooar!” Tiger was furious and caught up with Deer Mouse again. “You will not trick me again,” he roared. “Now you will be my lunch.” “But I cannot be your lunch, Tiger, for I have been ordered to watch the king’s drum,” Deer Mouse said, looking at a large wasp nest in a tree. “It makes the most fantastic sound in the world.” “I wish I could hit the king’s drum,” said Tiger. “Oh, no, that would make the king very angry,” replied Deer Mouse.

“Just one hit, please? No one will know,” pleaded Tiger. “Well, okay, but let me run away from here so I will not be blamed,” said Deer Mouse. And with that, Deer Mouse hurried away into the woods again. Tiger could not wait to try the drum. He took a big swing–POW! The buzzing grew louder and louder as the wasps circled around and started stinging Tiger. Tiger jumped in a stream and hid under the water until the wasps went away. Even angrier now, Tiger found Deer Mouse again.

Slide16

Unit 4 Assessment Passage 2A

“You tricked me twice, but now you will be my lunch!” roared Tiger.

Again, Deer Mouse used his quick wits. “I can’t be your lunch. The king has ordered me to watch his belt,” Deer Mouse said when he saw a large snake sleeping near his feet.

“His belt?” asked Tiger.

“Oh yes, it is the best belt in the world,” said Deer Mouse.

“I want to try on the king’s belt!” demanded Tiger.

“Well, okay, but let me run away from here so I will not be blamed,” said Deer Mouse.

And with that, Deer Mouse ran away into the woods again.

Tiger started to wrap the belt around his waist. Suddenly the snake awoke and hissed very angrily. The snake started to wind himself around Tiger–very tightly! “Yow!” cried Tiger. “It’s a snake! Come back here, Deer Mouse!” But Deer Mouse was already far away, happily looking for food once again.

Unit 4 Assessment Passage 2B

A lion wanted to eat all the other animals in the forest. He made them come to his den to be meals for him. This story tells how a little hare avoided being eaten and kept the lion from eating any other animals.

The Hare

and the Lion

Indian Fold Tale retold

by

A.J. Fowler

The lion was the king of the beasts. The king of beasts had his den in a lush forest, full of his animal subjects. Since he was the king, the other animals had to obey him. He was a cruel king, who abused his power. He ordered the other animals to come to him one at a time to be eaten.

When a poor animal’s time came to become the king’s dinner, it said good-by to its friends and went sadly through the woods to the lion’s den to face certain death. One by one, the animals reported to the king to become his royal dinner.

At last, it was the hare’s turn to be eaten. Hare was not inclined to blindly follow the king’s command. Being a crafty animal, he devised a plan to avoid becoming the king’s dinner. He thought a while, telling his friends, “There is no hurry. I shall be there in time enough.”

When at last he set out to the king’s lair, he took the longest way through the forest. He did not hurry until he came in sight of the lion’s den. As soon as the hare saw the lion’s den, he began to run as fast as he could. The lion was impatiently waiting for his dinner to arrive. He was furious, he was king and a king should not have to wait for his dinner. He angrily paced back and forth, growling and roaring in frustration. He was very hungry, a state that never failed to make him violently angry. The lion spotted the hare racing toward him and let out an irritated roar, but before he could say a word, the hare cried, “Oh, lion, I know I am very late and that you have a right to be angry. Before you eat me, I must tell you of another lion who has come to the forest. This lion ordered me to present myself to him. He claims that he is the master of this forest.”

Slide20

Unit 4 Assessment Passage 2B

“Ha!” roared the lion. “Where is he? Show him to me! I’ll teach him who rules the forest!”

“Follow me,” said the hare. He raced off through the woods with the lion following close behind.

After a time, they came to a well. “Careful my lord,” the hare began, “he is down there,” he continued, pointing to the well.

The lion let out a violent roar and puffed up his chest to appear stronger and more regal. “I will show this imposter who is the king of this forest!” The lion charged up to the well.

He looked down into the water. He saw a fierce lion looking back at him. Angrily, he shook his mane and roared; the other lion opened his mouth to roar, challenging the king.

Enraged, the lion exclaimed, “Let me at him! I’ll show him who is Master.” And with a powerful roar, the king reared up on his hind paws and jumped over the wall of the well. A large splash ended the lion’s reign of terror.

Then the animals in the forest lived in peace. The hare had set them free from the lion. Every morning, the birds of the forest still sing songs in honor of the hare.

Deer Mouse and the hare learn?

You cannot trust every creature, so you should learn to live without friends.

It is important to share and be friendly so in times of danger there is help.

A happy ending is possible if a creature is patient and waits for someone else to get him out of trouble.

A small creature can succeed against a powerful one using clever thinking.

Unit 4 Assessment Passage 3

Why the Evergreen Trees Never Lose Their Leaves

by Florence Holbrook

Winter was coming, and the birds had flown far to the south, where the air was warm and they could find berries to eat. One little bird had broken its wing and could not fly with the others. It was alone in the cold world of frost and snow. The forest looked warm, and it made its way to the trees as well as it could, to ask for help.

First, it came to a birch‐tree. “Beautiful birch‐tree,” it said, “my wing is broken, and my friends have flown away. May I live among your branches till they come back to me?”

“No, indeed,” answered the birch‐tree, drawing her fair green leaves away. “We of the great forest have our own birds to help. I can do nothing for you.”

“The birch is not very strong,” said the little bird to itself, “and it might be that she could not hold me easily. I will ask the oak.” So the bird said, “Great oak‐ tree, you are so strong, will you not let me live on your boughs till my friends come back in the springtime?”

“In the springtime!” cried the oak. “That is a long way off. How do I know what you might do in all that time? Birds are always looking for something to eat, and you might even eat up some of my acorns.”

“It may be that the willow will be kind to me,” thought the bird, and it said, “Gentle willow, my wing is broken, and I could not fly to the south with the other birds. May I live on your branches till the springtime?”

The willow did not look gentle then, for she drew herself up proudly and said, “Indeed, I do not know you, and we willows never talk to people whom we do not know. Very likely, there are trees somewhere that will take in strange birds. Leave me at once.”

The poor little bird did not know what to do. Its wing was not yet strong, but it began to fly away as well as it could. Before it had gone far, a voice was heard. “Little bird,” it said, “where are you going?” “Indeed, I do not know,” answered the bird sadly. “I am very cold.” “Come right here, then,” said the friendly spruce‐tree, for it was her voice that had called. “You shall live on my warmest branch all winter if you choose.”

Slide30

Will you really let me?” asked the little bird eagerly.

“Indeed, I will,” answered the kind‐hearted spruce‐tree. “If your friends have flown away, it is time for the trees to help you. Here is the branch where my leaves are thickest and softest.”

“My branches are not very thick,” said the friendly pine‐tree, “but I am big and strong, and I can keep the north wind from you and the spruce.”

“I can help too,” said a little juniper‐tree. “I can give you berries all winter long, and every bird knows that juniper berries are good.”

So the spruce gave the lonely little bird a home, the pine kept the cold north wind away from it, and the juniper gave it berries to eat.

The other trees looked on and talked together

scornfully

.

“I would not have strange birds on my boughs,” said the birch.

“I shall not give my acorns away for any one,” said the oak. “I never have anything to do with strangers,” said the willow, and the three trees drew their leaves closely about them.

In the morning all those shining green leaves lay on the ground, for the cold north wind had come in the night, and every leaf that it touched fell from the tree. “May I touch every leaf in the forest?” asked the wind in its frolic. “No,” said the forest king. “The trees that have been kind to the little bird with the broken wing may keep their leaves.” This is why the leaves of the spruce, the pine, and the juniper are always green. scornfully = With disgust or distaste
