2 Reading is …

3 “The prince began to take off his fine clothes, and Tom took off his old clothes and put on the clothes of the prince. Tom looked at the prince as he stood there dressed in Tom's clothes. He had seen someone very like him before. Where had he seen him? “Come and look at us in the glass!” cried the prince. They were just like each other.”

4 "I had slept for many hours. When I awoke it was just daylight
"I had slept for many hours. When I awoke it was just daylight. I tried to get up from the ground, but I could not move! My arms and feet were held down to the ground with strings. I heard some noise around me, but I could see nothing. In a little time I felt something alive moving on my foot, then it came over my body and up to my face. Turning my eyes down as much as I could, I saw a man. He was less than 15 centimeters high."

5 “Alice and her big sister were sitting on the grass
“Alice and her big sister were sitting on the grass. Her sister was reading a book, but Alice had nothing to read ... She was too sleepy ... Just then, a white rabbit ran by, very near to her. That does not happen every day, but Alice did not wonder about it. But she did wonder when the rabbit took a watch out of its pocket and looked at it.”

6 “At seven o'clock on a hot evening in the Seeonee hills, Father Wolf woke up. There was a little animal at the mouth of the cave. It was Tabaqui, the jackal. The wolves of India don't like Tabaqui. He makes trouble, Father Wolf could see from Tabaqui's eyes that he wanted to make trouble now. 'Shere Khan, the Big One, has changed his hunting grounds,' Tabaqui said.”

7 “There were 150 places at the table
“There were 150 places at the table. Each knight had his name written in his place. There were one hundred and twenty-eight knights at the table. As time went on other brave and good knights came, and King Arthur gave them places. One place was not filled for a long time. That place was for a knight who had never done any bad thing to anyone. It was called the 'Seat Perilous: if a bad man sat in it, he would die. After many years Sir Galahad came and was given that place.”
