PartII. Reading comprehension (40%)

Passage 1

It was Monday, and Mrs. Smith’s dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house.

Considering that there was no better way, Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote: “Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently, “Take this to the butcher, and he is going to give you your lunch today.”

Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher’s. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized it was the lady’s handwriting and did as he was asked. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up immediately.

At midday, the dog returned to the shop. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more.

The next day, the dog came again exactly at midday. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in its mouth. This time, the butcher didn’t look at the paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog one of his customers.
