The Honest Woodcutter
Once there was a poor woodcutter who cried aloud because he had dropped his axe
into a deep pond. Suddenly, a friendly water spirit appeared before him with a silver axe and
asked, "Is this yours?"
"No," the woodcutter said.
The spirit returned with a golden axe. "Is this yours?" she asked again.
"No, it is not mine," said the woodcutter.
Then, the spirit appeared with his plain wooden axe.
'That one is mine!" said the woodcutter happily.
To hear the answer, the spirit said, "You've been so honest, so take the gold and silver
axes too!"
On the way home, the woodcutter met a rich merchant. When the merchant heard the
woodcutter's story, he ran to the pond and dropped his wooden axe in it. He also cried
aloud. The same thing happened. The spirit appeared with a silver axe. The merchant
shouted quickly, "That one is mine!"
"You know it is not," said the spirit, and disappeared. The rich man's wooden axe
stayed at the bottom of the deep pond.

The Sumatran rhinoceros (Dicerorhinus sumatrensis) is the smallest rhino species. It is
also the most distinctive rhinoceros. It has been hunted almost to extinction. There are less
than 300 Sumatran rhinoceroses surviving in Malaysia and Indonesia. Between 1985 and 1995,
the number of Sumatran rhinos declined by 50 percent because of poaching and habitat
destruction.
The Sumatran rhinoceros has a unique gray or reddish-brown coat. It is believed to be the
only survivor of the lineage that included the woolly rhinoceros. Sumatran rhinos stand up to
1.4 m (4.6 ft) at the shoulder and weigh up to 1,000 kg (2,200 Ib). They have folded skin, like
the other Asian rhinos, except that it is covered with coarse, bristly hair. The Sumatran is the

One day, father and I went fishing in Kedung Ombo dam. There were many people there.
We pitched our tent to protect us from the sun.
Suddenly, we heard a shout, "Help!" We all looked out to the dam and saw a man
struggling in the water. He had apparently fallen from his raft. There was no lifeguard around
and nobody tried to help him.
I looked at my father who immediately took off his shirt, dived into the lake and quickly
swam towards the man. He put his arm around his neck and dragged him to the bank. Soon,
father laid that man on the ground and resuscitated him. The man regained consciousness. He
thanked my father. Father looked happy knowing that he had saved the man.
