Another man gave him a box full of jewels . A third man brought him a beautiful Arabian horse . The king didn’t like those people because they didn’t serve their country at all . They wanted to serve the king only . He thanked them , but he didn’t give them anything

After thinking and searching for a long time , the king found three good men . They served their country for a long time . The first man was a doctor who helped too many sick people in the country . The second one was a good teacher who taught a very big number of pupils . The third one was a great scientist who had many useful discoveries .The king decided to give the present to one of them .

While the king was thinking which one of the three men would get the present , an old woman came near him . She told the king that the doctor , the teacher and the scientist were her sons and that she came to see which one would take the present . The king was very surprised . He thought and thought and finally he discovered that the old lady was the one who deserved the big present .

III-Reading comprehension Learning something new can be a scary experience. One of the hardest things I've ever had to do was learn how to swim .I was always afraid of the water ,but I decided that swimming was an important skill that I should learn .I also thought it would be a good exercise and help me to become physically stronger . Also it would make me a more confident person.

New situations always make me a bit nervous, but the trainer was very patient .He taught me to concentrate on my arms and my legs. I felt hopeless. Sooner than I imagined, however, things began to feel "right" and I was able to swim and shoot across the water.

Learning to swim was not easy for me, but in the end my persistence ( مثابرة/اصرار) paid off .Now when I am faced with a new situation ,I am not so nervous . I know that as I practise being in that situation , I will feel more comfortable . It is a wonderful feeling when you achieve a goal you have set for yourself. A)-Choose the correct completion from a, b , c and d(3x1= 3 Marks) 1- The best title of the passage could be………………….. a)Learning something new b) A bad situation c) Weakness d) Feelings 2- The underlined pronoun “it” line"3" refers to: ............................................ a) experience b) skill c) swimming d) learning 3- The underlined word "hardest" line"1" means……………………. a) the easiest b)the most difficult c) the most attractive d) scary experience C) Answer the following questions (3x1=3 marks):
