I. READING

1. Read the story and say in a few sentences what it is about.

Many hands make light work?

Once upon a time there was a big family called Mudd. One day Mrs Mudd bought an apple tree in the market and brought it home. “Look at this lovely apple tree!” she said to her big family. “Would anybody like to help me to plant it in the garden?” But everybody said no!

Mr Mudd was very busy reading his newspaper. John and Sally were doing their homework. Dick was making a pirate ship. Betty was washing her doll. Hoover was feeding the cat. And little Joe was just too little. So Mrs Mudd had to plant the apple tree all by herself. In the summer the sun was very hot and the earth as dry as sand and as hard as rock. The leaves on the apple tree began to go yellow.

“Look at our poor little apple tree,” said Mrs Mudd to her big family. “Would anybody like to help me water it?” But everybody said no! Mr Mudd was busy dreaming in a chair in the garden. John and Sally were painting a picture. Dick was polishing his shoes. Betty was sewing a new pink dress for her doll. Hoover was

playing with his little puppy. And little Joe was just too little. So Mrs Mudd had to water the little apple tree all by herself.

In the autumn the apple tree was covered in big juicy apples.

“Look at all the apples on our tree!” said Mrs Mudd. “Would anybody like to help me pick them?” But everybody said no!…
