The Emperor’s Nightingale (An Excerpt)
By: Hans Christian Andersen

In China, you must know the emperor is a Chinaman, and all
whom he has about him are Chinamen, too. It happened a good many
years ago, but that’s just why it’s worthwhile to hear the story, before it
is forgotten. The emperor’s palace was the most splendid in the world; it
was made entirely of porcelain, very costly, but so delicate and brittle
that one had to take care how one touched it. In the garden were to be
seen the most wonderful flowers, and to the costliest of them silver bells
were tied, which sounded, so that nobody should pass by without
noticing the
flowers. Yes, everything in the emperor’s garden was admirably
arranged. And it extended so far, that the gardener himself did not know
where the end was. If the man, went on and on, he came into a glorious
forest with high trees and deep lakes. The wood extended straight down
to the sea, which was blue and deep; great ships could sail to and for
beneath the branches of the trees; and in the trees lived a nightingale,
which sang so splendidly that even the poor Fisherman, who had many
other things to do, stopped still and listened, when he had gone out at
night to throw out his nets, and heard the Nightingale.
“How beautiful that is!” he said, but he was obliged to attend to his
property, and thus forgot the bird. But when in the next night the bird
sang again, and the Fisherman heard it, he exclaimed again, “How
beautiful that is!”

2.Will the chamberlain find the

nightingale? If he does, what do
you think will happen to it?
3.Who is narrating the family tale?
Point of view is the “eye” or
narrative voice through which you
tell a story. When you write a
story, you must decide who is
telling the story, and to whom
they are telling it.
There are three primary types of point of view:

First person point of view. In first person point of view, one of the
characters is narrating the story. This is generally revealed by the “I” or
“We” sentence construction and relies on first person pronouns. (“I/We
went to work.”)
Second person point of view. Second person point of view is
structured around the “you” pronoun, and is less common in novel-length
work. (“You thought you could do it.”) Second person can allow you to
draw your reader into the story and make them feel like they’re part of the
action because the narrator is speaking directly to them.
Third person point of view. The author is narrating a story about the
characters and refers to them with the third person pronouns “he/she/They.”
(“He/She/They was/were hungry.”) This point of view is subdivided into
third person omniscient and third person limited.
Write if it is written from first, second or third person point of view.
The Red and the Driver Ants

(1)I know that there are friendly ants. There are also fierce ones.
Examples are the powerful red ants found in Europe. (2) You must be
very careful when you see these kind of ants. (3) They take black ants
smaller in size as their slaves. They attack the black ants’ nests and carry
off their eggs. These eggs when hatched become red ants. (4) From their
birth they are taught to obey. They are made to do all the work and even
carry about their masters on their backs.
(5) I hope there are not much of them. Those are the bad ants.
Hey friends, in addition to that, I have research that there are even
worse kinds of ants. These are the driver ants of Africa. (7) They
have no fixed homes and are always on the move. Completely blind,
they march like a big army. (8) You can be one of the victim if you
are not careful to avoid them. (9) They eat up any living tigers,
pythons and elephants, are afraid of these ants. (10) Thank God, we
have no such ants in our country.
What are the different types of
point of view? How do we
identify different types of point
of view?
Read and understand the following statements. Identify
its point of view.
1. When the boy was caught telling a lie, he quivered

with a shame. His trembling body stopped only when his
parents came.
2. “Hey! Stop having a freakish dream. Be realistic!”
3. I was tickled by the thought that I’ll wear a quilt robe
which quickly changed Fashion today.
4. They smile when they want to scream.
