KIDS FOUR FINAL EXAM Paper 1

Time allowed: 1 hour
A) Read the story: “The Ugly Tree”.
Long, long ago, in a dark forest there were a lot of tall and beautiful trees. They were
happy. There was only one that was very ugly. Its branches were badly twisted. All the
trees laughed at that poor ugly tree.
“How are you, ugly tree?" the other trees always shouted and they laughed. The ugly
tree felt sad. But, he never said anything. The ugly tree only wanted to be beautiful like the other
trees.
One day, a woodcutter came to the forest. He took a look at the trees and
said:
“These trees are beautiful. I must cut them." He picked up his axe.
The trees were scared.
‘Chop, Chop, Chop’ went the woodcutter’s axe and one by one the trees started to fall.
“Oh no, he is going to cut all the trees," screamed one of the beautiful trees.
When the woodcutter came near the ugly tree, he said “Hmm! This twisted tree is not
useful for me. I can’t make anything out of this ugly tree," he thought. And he moved to
another beautiful tree. The ugly tree was happy. He realized that being ugly was good.
From that day on, the ugly tree never complained. He was happy with his twisted
branches. He never forgot how he was saved from the woodcutter’s axe, only because he was
twisted and ugly.
