[04:19.24]Exercise 1

[04:21.40]Directions: Listen to the story carefully and complete the summary of the story by filling in each of the blanks with an appropriate word.

[04:32.81]Many centuries ago, a group of Jews landed in India and immediately went to the king

[04:41.30]They told him that they were lost and wanted to settle in his kingdom.

[04:47.50]In those days any foreigner was viewed with suspicion

[04:52.79]So the king was hesitant about letting them in

[04:56.68]He sent for one glass of milk and one glass of wate

[05:01.32]He asked the leader of the Jews to taste the mil

[05:05.10]Then he poured out some milk and added some wate

[05:10.03]He asked the leader to taste the milk again and said:"What is the difference in taste?"

[05:17.52]The leader said:"The second time the milk tastes terrible

[05:23.64]"That is because of the water added to the milk," said the kin

[05:28.32]"The water dilutes the milk and spoils its tast

[05:33.00]So you too your addition will spoil the kingdom

[05:38.04]The leader of the Jews thought for a moment and asked for another glass of mil

[05:44.70]He then added sugar to the milk and asked the king to taste i

[05:50.39]It tastes sweet," said the king.

[05:53.88]The leader of the Jews bowed his head and said:"Oh, kin

[05:59.71]That is how we would like to live her

[06:02.95]as the small amount of sugar which sweetens the large quantity of milk and not as the water which dilutes the milk

[06:12.06]Please with him the king granted them permission to stay.

[06:17.50]Exercise 2

[06:19.37]Directions: Listen to the story again and discuss in pairs the following questions.

[06:27.90]1) Why did the king allow them to stay?

[06:32.44]2) What is the moral of the story?

[06:36.43]3) Do you think people from different cultures can live harmoniously together? Give your reasons.
