    George was given sixpence by his uncle to save in his money box. Instead of saving it, George decided to buy some sweets at the shop. On his way, he dropped the sixpence and it rolled down a drain. When George tried to retrieve it by putting his arm down the drain, he got stuck. A crowd gathered and a lady tried rubbing soap and butter on his arm to free him. Eventually, the fire brigade was called and used grease to free George's arm from the drain.

    Read the text below and then answer the questions:


    Children always appreciate small gifts of money. Father, of course, provides a regular supply of pocket-money, but uncles and aunts are always a source of extra income. With some children, small sums go a long way. If sixpences are not exchanged for sweets, they rattle for months inside money-boxes. Only very thrifty children manage to fill up a money-box. For most of them, sixpence is a small price to pay for a satisfying bar of chocolate. My nephew, George, has a money-box but it is always empty. Very few of the sixpences I have given him have found their way there. I gave him sixpence yesterday and advised him to save it. Instead, he bought himself sixpence worth of trouble. On his way to the sweet shop, he dropped his sixpence and it rolled along the pavement and then disappeared down a drain. George took off his jacket, rolled up his sleeves and pushed his right arm through the drain cover. He could not find his sixpence anywhere, and what is more, he could not get his arm out. A crowd of people gathered round him and a lady rubbed his arm with soap and butter, but George was firmly stuck. The fire-brigade was called and two firemen freed George using a special type of grease. George was not too upset by his experience because the lady who owns the sweet shop heard about his troubles and rewarded him with a large box of chocolates.

    1. 2. 3. 4.

    Where was George going? Where did he lose his sixpence? What did a lady try to do? How did firemen finally free George?
