questions. For each question there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the

ONE that you think is the best answer.

Passage 1

In the United States there was an unusual tale telling of the daughter of a

mechanic. One day while walking along the bank of a lake, the girl happened to see 20

eggs laid by a wild goose. After some time the girl realized the mother would not

return to her eggs and she decided to take them home. There she carefully placed the

eggs in the heat of a lamp. Several days later the eggs broke and the baby geese came

into the world.

Geese are known to take the first living thing they see as their mother. Thus, to

these young geese, the girl was their mother.

As they grew, the girl was able to lead her birds to run across the grass, but she

could not teach them to fly. The girl became increasingly worried about this, both

when awake and in her dreams. Later, she had an idea. She would pilot a plane to guide

them in flight. She asked her father for a plane and he assembled small aircraft for her.

Caring about her safety, the father decided to pilot the plane himself. However,

the birds did not recognize or follow him, and instead slept in the grass.

One day, the girl climbed into the plane, started it and soon left the ground. Seeing

their mother take to the air, the birds eagerly flapped their wings and set out. She flew

the plane freely in the sky, her young birds following.

A. The Daughter of a Mechanic. B. A Girl and Her Father.
