IV. Reading Comprehension.

The Warrior Scholar
King Charlemagne had a secret. He could not write. He tried very hard to learn, and every
night, he placed a pen and paper by his bed so that he could practice. Every time he rode
out to war, the pen and paper went with him, but he still could not write.
As a little boy, Charlemagne had been brought up in the court of his father, Pepin. Pepin
was king of the Franks, the people who lived in the land we now call France.
Pepins main aim in life was to drive back Arab armies, which had threatened to spread
right across Europe. So Charlemagnes early years had been spent in learning to fight and
he had no time to study. He defeated the Arabs in France with his father, and then in A.D.
771, he became king of the Franks himself. He grew up to be a tall, strong, and handsome
man who was feared by his enemies.
Charlemagne was a very powerful king. He had protected Christian Europe from the Arab
invasion and in A.D. 800, he was consecrated as holy emperor of that region. He was an
intelligent leader too. He loved talking with poets and artists and listening to scholars. His
court at Aachen, in present-day Germany, became a center of learning. Charlemagne set
up schools throughout his kingdom, so that the children could learn to count, to read, and to
write.
