Many years ago, a very poor farmer bought a plot of land. One day, while he was ploughing it, he found an iron box in the soil. When he opened it, he was surprised to find that it was filled with silver and gold. Since it was his land where it was found, he could keep the box for himself. But the farmer was a truly honest man. He went to the person from whom he had bought the land and showed him the box of gold and silver. "What is this?" asked the previous owner of the land.

Passage 4: Cycling
Exercise is an important part of staying healthy. Although there are many kinds of exercises that we can do, one of the best forms of exercise is cycling. The good thing about cycling is that we can include it in our daily routine. We can cycle to work or to school, cycle to go to the market or to meet a friend. We can cycle almost anywhere and at any time of the year. The best thing about cycling is that it is low-cost! We do not need to buy costly equipment. A simple bicycle and a helmet are enough. Cycling is good for the heart. It is also good for our joints. But we must wear a helmet while cycling to protect our head from injuries. Cycling helps not only us, but also our planet! Unlike motor vehicles, a cycle does not pollute the air. By reducing pollution, we help to keep our earth greener and healthier.

It did not come down. Ted pulled the string again and again. The string broke. Ted was very sad. He left the kite in the tree and went home. At night, the Wind began to blow gently. It whispered, 'Why are you hiding among the leaves?' The kite replied, 'I am afraid to fly too high.' The Wind said, 'When we do something for the first time, we feel afraid. But the fear goes away.
