Question 1
Read the following story and answer the question that follows it.
EAGLE’S QUEST
A long time ago when pigs could still fly and animals could speak with authority, Eagle, the queen of
the skies, was the leader of all birds and the heavens. She flew higher in the sky than everyone and
ruled ably over her people. During those times, a huge crisis came to be: there was no food due to
drought, and the forests were catching fire because of human beings. Eagle knew she had to do
something for her people in order for them to survive.
So, she called for her faithful warriors Owl and Falcon to help her. “Friends”, she said, “our land is
destroyed, and our people are hungry. We need to find a new home with plenty of food.”
Owl responded, “I have heard of a place far away where the rivers are full of fish and the skies are
clear to soar. But it's a long and dangerous journey, my queen. We will have to fly over steep
mountains, dark caves, and wide dry deserts.”
Falcon responded, “I will fly ahead to scope out the path, but we need to hurry because our people are
dying. The journey will be difficult and we must prepare to face many challenges.”
And so, the three birds began the long journey. They flew over mountains and valleys unknown,
through heavy storms and under the scorching hot sun. They met many dangers along the way, like
fierce hawks and sharp rocks. But they worked together and used their skills to overcome them.
One day, they came to a wide desert. There was no food or water there, and the sun was very hot.
Eagle said to her companions, “We need shelter to rest. Let us work together and combine our
strengths to make one.” They nodded in agreement.
Owl used her wisdom to find a cave, and Falcon used his speed to gather sticks and leaves. Eagle used
her strong wings to build a shelter. They rested and recovered, and later they continued their journey.
Finally, after many days of traveling, they reached the new land. It was as beautiful as Owl had said
and had plenty of food for all the birds in Eagle’s kingdom. The three birds now knew what dangers to
look out for on the path to the new land, so they were able to escort their people safely there. Eagle,
Owl, and Falcon were declared heroes of the Eagle Kingdom.
