A a very hardworking couple

C a kind hearted but silly husband
D a mean and powerful king of quails
E a humorous but grouchy quail tribe
17 Once upon a time, there lived a man called Bhim. He made his living by trapping quails.
He used to hide among the bushes and imitate the sound of a quail. When the birds came closer,
he threw his net over them and caught them. He then sold them in market.
Bhim caught about ten to twenty quails daily. The king of the quails was worried. Many of his
subjects were being captured. He hit upon a plan. He gathered all the quails around him one day.
“You must learn to stand together.” He said. “Unity is strength. As soon as that man throws his
net over you, using all your strength, you must fly off with the net. Descent to the ground near
the banyan tree. There our friends will set you free.”
“What a good idea!” said the quails.
The next day, Bhim cast his net over some quails. At once they flew away with the net. He did
not know where they had flown. He searched for the net but could not find it.
Bhim then bought a new net. Again the same thing happened. The birds flew away with the net.
Bhim and his wife were unhappy. “How can we make our living now?” said the wife.
“Don’t you worry,” said Bhim. “The birds have learned to work together. As soon as the net is
thrown over them, they fly off with it. I don’t think their unity will last long. They won’t like in
peace any longer. They will quarrel with one another soon, and I will catch plenty of them.”
The next day Bhim found the quails quarrelling. One of them said, “We are able to escape
because I am strong enough to lift the net.” Another bird said, “I am the strongest. I can’t lift the
net myself.” Soon all the quails joined in the quarrel.
Just then Bhim threw his net over the group of birds. “Now let us see what you can do!” cried
one. “Can you lift the net without my help?” said another. “Try and lift it.” They went on
quarrelling and did not try to fly away together. Soon Bhim drew in his net and took the birds
home.
“Look!” he said, showing the quails to his wife. “Didn’t I tell you that they wouldn’t stand
together much longer? The quails are a quarrelsome tribe. I will catch plenty of them every day.”
The king of quails said sadly, “A people that is divided is as at mercy of the enemy.”

The complication started when ....

A the king of quails gathered his followers to make a plan for escaping from Bhim’s trap
B the quails started quarrelling one and another to show which one was the strongest
C Bhim was failed to cast his net over some quails and it happened more than once.
D Bhim’s wife was so worried that her husband could not catch quails any more.
E the quails’ king asked them to stop quarrelling and giving them some advice
