Last
December it rained heavily all day long. Kamal’s house was near the river. The
area around his house was already flooded and the water was rising rapidly.
Kamal and his family decided to go to the school nearby, which was on higher
ground. It would be safer there.
He
waded through the waist-high water.
He could see branches of trees, dead animals and even pots and pans floating. Suddenly, he saw something moving in the swirling waters. It looked like a branch, but it was much darker. As the object approached, Kamal realized it was a python. It was a large one and looked dangerous.
He could see branches of trees, dead animals and even pots and pans floating. Suddenly, he saw something moving in the swirling waters. It looked like a branch, but it was much darker. As the object approached, Kamal realized it was a python. It was a large one and looked dangerous.
Frightened,
Kamal watched the reptile coming towards him. He had never seen a python
swimming before, let alone one as big as this. He looked around for something
to hit it with, but there was nothing. Then he heard shouts and the noise of a
motor boat. It was a Red Crescent rescue boat. Just in the nick of time! The
snake swam away and Kamal was quickly pulled into the boat. Kamal heaved a sigh
of relief. That was the most frightening encounter of his life, and he was
lucky to be rescued.

The archer and the trumpeter were
traveling together in a lonely place. The archer boasted of his skill as a
warrior, and asked the trumpeter if he bore arms.
“No,”
replied the trumpeter, “I cannot fight. I can only blow my horn, and make music
for those who are at war.”
“But
I can hit a mark at a hundred paces,” said the archer. As he spoke, an eagle
appeared, hovering over the tree tops. He drew out an arrow, fitted it on the
string, shot at the bird, which straightway fell to the ground, transfixed to
the heart.
“I
am not afraid of any foe for that bird might just as well have been a man,”
said the archer proudly. “But you would be quite helpless if anyone attacked
you.”
They
saw at that moment a band of robbers approaching them with drawn swords. The
archer immediately discharged a sharp arrow, which laid low the foremost of the
wicked men. But the rest soon overpowered and bound his hands.
“As
for this trumpeter, he can do us no harm for he has neither sword nor bow,” one
of the robbers said. They released the trumpeter, but took away his wallet.
Then,
the trumpeter said, “You are welcome, friends, but let me play you a tune on my
horn.”
With
their consent he blew loud and long on his trumpet, and in a short space of
time the guards of the king came running up at the sound, and surrounded the
robbers and carried them off to prison.
When
they unbound the hands of the archer, the archer said to the trumpeter,
“Friend, I have learned today that a trumpet is better than a bow; for you have
saved our lives without doing harm to anyone.”
