The wolf thought that was a good

dance, the grass in my stomach will be
digested faster.” Again, the wolf agreed.

from around my neck. If you ring it as hard as
you can, I will be able to dance even faster.”

My name is Meiko. When my family


moved on the United States, we brought many of
our customs with us. Among my favorites is the
art of bonsai. Harmony, beauty, simplicity, and
balance are hallmarks of japanese art and culture.
Among other things, the Japanese are known for
their simple but thoughtfully designed gardens.
Each rock, pool, temple, or gateway is positioned
where it can best be admired and where it
complementa other elements of the garden
arrangement.

Bonsai, another from of garden, is the


Japanese art of producing miniature, but fully
formed, trees. This is done by precise clipping of
branches and roots, and carefully regulating the
water supply. Bonsai tree arrangements are so
small that they can be placed within a home
instead of outside it.

The art of bonsai originated in China but


became popular in Japan around 1500. Some
bonsai trees are very old and have been passed
from one generation to another. For this reason
bonsai trees are considered a symbol of
immortality in the Japanese culture. I brought
with me to America a small bonsai tree. But, alas,
we cannot have a whole garden.

a. Bonsai trees.
b. Meiko the bonsai lover.

35. What Is the main idea of paragraph two?
a. Bonsai is done by precise clipping of branches and roots.

small village. He was very hungry and weak.

some food, but nobody cared about him.
Nobody wanted to help the little boy. Finally,
a generous old woman helped him. She gave
him a shelter and a meal. When the boy
wanted to leave, the old woman gave him a
“lesung”, a big wooden mortar for pounding
rice.

yourself. Use this “lesung” as a boat”.

The little boy was happy and

no one was saved from the water except the
little boy and the generous old woman who
gave him shelter and meal. As she told him, he
