Going Fishing for the First Time
Last week, my uncle asked me to go
fishing with him in the river near his house. He
also told me that the scenery there is
beautiful. I was excited because I had never
gone fishing before. Therefore, he taught me
how to do it very well.
We left at 9 a.m. When we got to the river,
there were already some people. They were
also fishing. Then, we looked for a convenient
place under a tree. We put our fishing
equipment and our lunch box on the mat we
brought. After that, my uncle taught me how to
catch fish. He did it very patiently.
Suddenly, in the middle of fishing, I felt
something really heavy catching my hook. I

Mahogany
In the natural rainforest, Mahogany is a
very large canopy tree, sometimes reaching
over 150 feet in height, with trunks
sometimes more than 6 feet in diameter
above a large basal buttress. It is a generally
open-crowned tree, with gray to brownish-
red fissured bark.
Mahogany is perhaps the most valuable
timber tree in the whole of Latin America and
has been heavily exploited for most of this
century. Mahogany is becoming increasingly
rare, and is already extinct in parts of its
original range. It is listed as threatened in
"Arboles Maderables en Peligro de Extinción
en Costa Rica" and is listed in CITES
Appendix III.
Mahogany varies from yellowish,
reddish, pinkish, or salmon colored when
freshly cut, to a deep rich red, to reddish
brown as the wood matures with age.
Mahogany is fine to medium texture, with
uniform to interlocking grain, ranging from
straight to wavy or curly. Irregularities in the
grain often produce highly attractive figures
such as fiddle back or mottle. Mahogany
polishes to a high luster, with excellent
working and finishing characteristics. It
responds well to hand and machine tools,
has good nailing and screwing properties,
and turns and carves superbly.
Mahogany is regarded by many as the
world's premier wood for fine cabinetry, high-
class furniture, trimming fine boats, pianos

hear him coming, we will have time to escape.
What we need to do now is to come up with a
warning system’.
The other mice agreed. The room was
silent as they as they began to think. At last, a
Young Mouse suggested, “I know what we can
do! We can tie a bell with a piece of ribbon
and hang it around the Cat’s neck. That way,
whenever the cat is near, we will hear the bell
and can run for cover.’
“Well done! That’s a clever idea!” the
other mice cheered.

Firefly
A little boy called Dhon lived in a hut with
his mother, in a small village in Assam. Every
evening Dhon’s mother went to a nearby jungle
to fetch firewood. When she was away, Dhon
would play in the garden. Everyday, before
leaving, she would tell Dhon, “I am going to
bring firewood, son. Do not go out. Play near
the hut.”
“Mama, may I go a little way in the woods
to pick blackberries?” he asked one day. “All
right,” his mother said, “but do not go very far.”
So Dhon went to the woods that day. He was
happy to hear the birds chirping on the trees.
He ate lots of blackberries. He stuffed some in
his pockets. He also gathered some in his
handkerchief.
Then Dhon tried to catch some beautiful
butterflies. He chased them far into the woods.
He ran and he jumped. He forget he had to go
back home. After some time, he felt tired and
sleepy. He wanted to go home. But he could
not find his way back. He did not know what to
do. He sat under a tree and cried.
