Then answer each question.  \nMr . Easter Rabbit  \nAn old German legend  \nBy Carolyn Sherwin Bailey  \nA long time ago, in a far-off country, there was a famine. This is how it came about. In the early spring, when the first grass peeped out, the sun shone so hot that the grass dried up. No rains fell through the long summer months, so that the seed and grain that were planted could not grow. Everywhere the fields and meadows, usually so green and rich, were a dull gray-brown. Here and there a tree waved its dusty branches in the hot wind. When fall came, there was great emptiness; and instead of happy fathers and mothers, there were grave, troubled ones.  \nBut the children were just as happy as ever. They were glad that it had not rained, as they could play outdoors all day long.  \nThe people had to be mindful of the food they had saved from the year before. That following winter, by being very careful, they managed to provide  \nsimple food for their families. When Christmas came there were not many presents, but the children did not miss them as we would, because in that country they did not give many presents at Christmas-time.  \nTheir big holiday was Easter Sunday.  \nEaster Reading Comprehension  \nEaster Worksheet  \nOn that day they had a great celebration, and there were always goodies and presents for the little boys and girls. As the time came nearer, the parents wondered what they should do for the children’s holiday. Every new day it was harder than the day before to get just plain, coarse bread to eat. Where would they find all the sweet treats and pretty things that the children had always had at Easter time?  \nOne evening some of the mothers met, after the children were in bed, to talk about what they should do.  \nOne mother said,“We can have eggs. All the chickens are laying.”  \nAnother mother chimed in,“The children are so tired of eggs, because they eat them every day.”  \nThey decided that eggs would not be a good Easter treat. They went home feeling sad, thinking that Easter would come and go like any other day.  \nOne mother was more sorry than any of the others. Her little boy and girl had been planning and talking about the beautiful time they would have on the great holiday.  \nAfter the mother had gone to bed, she wondered and thought If there was any way in which she could giver her little ones a happy time. All at once she cried right out in the dark,“I know, I have thought of something to make the children happy!”  \nEaster Reading Comprehension  \nEaster Worksheet  \nShe could hardly wait until morning. The first thing she did was run into the next house to tell her neighbor about her bright plan. The neighbor told someone else, and so the secret flowed until, before night, all the mothers had heard it, but not a single child.  \nThere was still a week before Easter, so there was a good deal of whispering. The fathers and mothers smiled every time they thought of the secret. When Easter Sunday came, everyone went, first of all, to the great stone church—mothers, fathers and children. When church was over, instead of going home, the older people suggested walking to the great woods just behind the church.  \n“Perhaps we’ll find some flowers,” they said.  \nThey all went to the woods, and soon the happy children were scattered through the woods, among the trees. Then a shout went up—now here, now there—from all sides.  \n“Mom, dad, look here!”  \n“See what I have found: some beautiful eggs!”  \n“Here’s a red one!”  \n“I’ve found a yellow one!”  \n“Here’s a whole nest: all different colors!”  \nEaster Reading Comprehension  \nEaster Worksheet  \nThe children came running, bringing different colored eggs they had found in the soft moss under the trees. They were too large for birds’eggs. They were large, like hens’ eggs, but who had ever seen a hen lay such wonderfully colored eggs?  \nJust then, from behind a large tree where the children had found a nest ful","cbCain63w3kDlFZS","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCain63w3kDlFZS","pdf",154929,"English","# Exercises\n## Multiple choice\n## Fill in the blanks\n## Discussion question","[{\"question\":\"Why were the parents grave and troubled in the story?\",\"answer\":\"They were dealing with a famine and there wasn’t much to eat, so food shortages affected everyday life and holiday hopes.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the mothers initially consider as Easter treats, and why was it rejected?\",\"answer\":\"They considered having eggs, since chickens were laying, but decided eggs wouldn’t be a good treat because the children were tired of eating them every day.\"},{\"question\":\"How do the children end up finding the colored eggs on Easter Sunday?\",\"answer\":\"After church, families walk to the woods.
