Practice 1

Last week, Marza, Izham and Riza went for a hiking trip in a jungle near
their village. They enjoyed their hiking journey and had a whale of time. They
found a river of pristine water. Marza and Izham went swimming but Riza did
not join them.

Suddenly Riza saw a strange bird and it caught his attention. He chased
the bird. He did not spot a poisonous snake in the bush and unfortunately, the
snake bit him at the ankle. He yelled out in pain. Marza and Izham heard their
friend’s scream and rushed to Riza. They quickly chased the snake and helped
Riza who had fallen to the ground.

They knew that Riza should be treated immediately. They walked out from
the jungle and helped Riza to walk as well. Luckily, they managed to stop a car
passing by. The car driver cancelled his trip and decided to send Riza to the
nearest hospital immediately. Riza was saved by his friend’s quick action.

There once lived a king named King Marza. He wanted to employ a

personal bodyguard, so he had an idea. He called all the men to his palace. He
said “ I want you to smash this diamond.”
All the men refused to smash the diamond because they said the diamond
was very valuable, beautiful, and belonged to the king. They were afraid that the
king might punish them.
Then, a young man in the crowd came forward and smashed the diamond
into tiny pieces. Immediately, all the king’s guards captured him. However King
Marza released the young man. ‘He has done nothing wrong. He only did what I
told him to do. That’s what I want in a bodyguard,’ declared King Marza.
The young man was later announced as King Marza’s new bodyguard.
He was very happy and served his king with loyalty.
