following passage carefully and an-

in bold to help you locate them while
answering some of the questions.
Once upon a time, there lived a
lion in a forest. A jackal, a crow and a
wolf had developed friendship with
him. However, all the three had a self-
ish motive behind this so-called friend-
ship. They knew that the lion was the
king of the forest and friendship with
such a fierce creature would always
help them. To meet their selfish ends,
they started obeying and were always
at the service of the lion.
They didn't have to make any
efforts to search for their food, as the
lion gave his leftover meals to them.
Moreover, they became powerful as
they were next to the king of the for-
est. One day, a camel, who came from
some distant land, lost his way and
entered the same forest where these
friends lived. In the meantime, these
three friends happened to pass the
same way that the camel was wan-
dering. When they saw the camel, they
realized that he did not belong to their
forest. The jackal suggested to his oth-
er two friends, "Let's kill and eat him."
The wolf replied, "It is a big animal.
We cannot kill him like this. I think,
we should first inform our king about
this camel." The crow agreed with the
wolf's idea. All of them went to meet
the lion.
On reaching the lion's den, the
jackal approached the lion and said,
"Your Majesty, an unknown camel has
dared to enter your kingdom without
your consent. Let's kill him; he could
make a nice meal." The lion roared
loudly on hearing this and said, 'What
are you saying ? The camel has come
for refuge in my kingdom. It is uneth-
ical to kill him. We should provide him
the best shelter. Go and bring him to
me." All of them were dispirited to
hear these words from the king. They
unwillingly went to the camel and told
him about the lion's desire to meet
him. The camel was scared about the
strange offer. He thought that his end
had come and in a little while he would
become the lion's meal. As he couldn't
even escape, he decided to meet the
lion. The selfish friends escorted the
camel to the lion's den. The lion wel-
comed the camel warmly and assured
him of a safe stay in the forest. The
camel was totally amazed to hear the
lion's words. He happily started liv-
ing with the jackal, the crow and the
wolf.
One day, when the lion was hunt-
ing for food, he had a struggle with a
mighty elephant. The lion was badly
injured in the struggle and became in-
capable of hunting for his food. Thus
the lion had to sustain without food
for days. Due to this, his friends too
had to go hungry for days as they, to-
tally depended on the lion's kill for
their food. But the camel was satis-
fied grazing around in the forest.
All the three friends were wor-
ried and discussed the matter among
them. As the jackal, the crow and the
wolf had set their evil eyes on the cam-
el, they met once again and devised a
plan to kill the camel. They went to
the camel and said, "Dear Friend, you
know our king has not eaten anything
for many days now. He is unable to
hunt due to his wounds and sickness.
Under such circumstances, it becomes
our duty to sacrifice ourselves to save
the life of our king. Come with us, we
will offer our bodies as food for him."
The camel didn't understand their
plan, but innocently nodded in favour
of it. All of them approached the lion's
den.
First of all, the crow came for-
ward and said, "Your Majesty, I can't
see you like this. So please eat me."
The lion replied, "I would prefer to die
than to perform such a sinful deed."
Then, the jackal came forward and
said, "Your Majesty, crow's body is too
small for your appetite. I offer myself
to you, as it is my duty to save your
life." The lion politely rejected the of-
fer. As per the plan, now it was the
wolfs turn to offer himself to the king.
So, the wolf came forward and said,
"Your Majesty, jackal is quite small to
gratify your hunger. I offer myself for
this kind job. Please, kill me and ap-
pease your hunger." But the Lion didn't
kill any of them. The camel, who was
watching the whole scene felt reas-
sured of his safety and also decided
to go forward and complete the for-
mality. He marched forward and said,
"Your Majesty, why don't you kill me ?
You are my friend. Please allow me to
offer you my body." The lion found the
offer quite appropriate as the camel
himself had offered his body for food.
The lion attacked the camel at once,
ripped open his body and tore him into
pieces. The lion and his friends feast-
ed on the poor camel for days together.
