The Ant and the Grasshopper One summer day, a grasshopper was playing. An ant passed by, taking food to his nest. "Come play with me," said the grasshopper. "I am storing food for winter," said the ant. "You should, too." "Winter is far away," said the grasshopper. "We have plenty of food now." The ant kept working. The grasshopper kept playing. Winter came. The grasshopper had no food and was hungry. The ant had food and was full all winter. adapted from "The Ant and the Grasshopper" by Aesop What is the lesson of the story?

While the grasshopper plays all

day, the ant works hard to store

food for the winter.

The grasshopper tries to get the

ant to play with him, but the ant

keeps working.

In the winter, the grasshopper

is hungry, and he learns that

he should have prepared like

the ants.

The ants should have shared

their food with the grasshopper.

The grasshopper asks the ant,

“Why should you work so hard?”

i believe that dan is so anxious because he dose not know what awaits him when he gets there. but i dont know to be honest

i decided to stay late in the laboratory to continue my experiment with the lightbulb. at midnight, thomas edison opened the door and walked in with his head held high.

1. he leaned on the wall and observed me carefully.

2. his harsh scrutiny made me self-conscious of my skills in the lab.

3. perhaps it was just me, but the air in the laboratory began to thicken as i found myself having difficulty to breathe.

4. i turned to look at him fully as i mentally prepared myself for what my very first words would be to thomas edison.

5. the next couple of seconds shocked me. it wasn't me who spoke, but rather him and with diction i could never think of using in a simple sentence.
