    Answer:

    Ramesh and Gita reached home. They found their house locked. Mrs. Meena, their next door neighbour told them that their father had met with an accident. The news came to us as a blow. We felt as if the ground had slipped from beneath our feet. For a while we were in a fix about what to do and where to go, so many questions came to my mind, what was the extent of their injuries or how it happened? Then our neighbour pacified us saying that everything was in control. He had been admitted in a hospital. They told us that our father had been hit by a speeding car while he was crossing the road. As soon as the screeching of the car brakes were heard, people from neighbourhood had gathered there. Our father had fallen and became unconscious, as he was in a state of shock. So our neighbours had taken him to the hospital. Our mother was also there, we too rushed to the hospital. When we reached there we heaved a sign of relief to find that he had come to his senses. Doctor said that he would discharge him the next day. We thanked God.
    All is well that ends well.

    One day, on a hot summer day, the sun was shining brightly, a crow was very thirsty. He flew here and there, he flew all over the fields looking for water, but he could not find water. He started feeling very weak and almost lost all his hopes, so he went and sat on a tree. Suddenly, he saw a pot of water. He flew straight down to the pot of water of quench his thirst. When he reached near the pot he sat on the rim of the pot to see if there was any water inside. Yes, he could see the water inside the pot. But the water level was very low. The crow tried to push is head into the pot but was unable to reach the water level because the neck of the pot was too narrow. Then he tried to push the pot for the water to flow out but it was too heavy. He tried hard for a while but, eventually gave up. Then suddenly, he thought of a plan, he looked around and saw some pebbles, he started picking up the pebbles one by one and threw them into the pot. As more and more pebbles filled the pot, the water level rose. Soon, it was high enough for the crow to drink. He drank the water and flew away from there happily. His plan had worked.
