Read the text and match. Alice Grows Again Suddenly, Alice heard footsteps. She looked up and saw the rabbit again. He was very worried. "Oh dear! Where are they?” he said. “The Duchess is going to be very angry! Where did I drop them?” “He’s looking for his fan and gloves,” thought Alice. She looked for them, too, but they were back in the room with the glass table, and she didn’t know where that was any more. Just then, the rabbit saw Alice. "Mary Ann!” he shouted. “Why are you here? Go home right now and find me a pair of gloves and a fan!” "He thinks I’m his maid!” thought Alice, but she was too scared to say anything. She ran away and soon saw a little house, with the name “W. RABBIT” on the door. She went inside and ran upstairs. In the tiny bedroom, she saw a table with a fan and some white gloves on it. There was also a tiny bottle. Alice picked it up. “I'm tired of being so small,” she thought. “I wonder what this drink does.” Alice drank the drink. “Oh! I’m growing again!” said Alice, as her head hit the ceiling. But this time, she grew even bigger. She sat on the floor, with one arm out of the and one foot up the chimney. She was very unhappy. "How can I get out of here now?” she thought. Just then, Alice heard the rabbit. "Mary Ann!" he shouted. “Where are my gloves and fan?" The rabbit ran up the stairs and tried to open the bedroom door. “Hmm!” said the rabbit. "There’s something inside. Never mind. I can go through the window. "The rabbit ran outside again and looked up at the window. “Pat! Bill!" he shouted. “What is that in the window?” “It’s an arm, sir!” said another voice. “Well, take it out of my window!” shouted the rabbit. Pat the guinea pig tried to get through the window, but Alice moved her arm and he fell down again. Then Bill the lizard tried to get down the chimney, but Alice moved her leg and he flew out again. Next, Pat and Bill threw- stones at Alice through the window. When the stones landed on the floor, they changed into little . Alice ate one of the cakes, and started to get smaller. "Wonderful!” she said. “I’m just the right size!” She put some cakes in her pocket and went downstairs. She ran out of the house, across the garden and into a wood.

Read the text and mark the statements True , False . The King and the Painter There was a king who thought he could paint very well. His pictures were very bad but the people to whom he showed them were afraid to tell him the truth. They all said that his pictures were wonderful and they liked them very much. One day the king showed his pictures to a great painter who lived in his country and said, "I'd like to know what you think of my pictures. Do you like them?" The painter looked at the king's pictures and said, "My king, I believe that your pictures are bad and you will never be a good artist." The king got very angry and sent the painter to prison. Two years passed and the king wanted to see the painter again. "I was angry with you," he said, "because you didn't like my pictures. Now you are a free man again and I am your friend." The king talked with the painter and invited him for dinner. The dinner was wonderful. And they enjoyed it very much. After dinner the king showed his pictures to the painter again and asked, "Well, how do you like them now?" The painter turned to a soldier who was standing behind him and said, "Take me back to prison."
