Now, say and write down one more thing that we do in the winter season:

We eat hot food in winter.

21. a) One evening, Mousumi asked her grandmother why she doesn't see some animals in winter. Her grandmother explained that different animals have different habits. Some gather food during the summer and then rest afterwards. Her grandmother then went on to tell her a story. Let's listen to the story:

The Grasshopper and the Ant

It was summer. A grasshopper was singing and dancing in the warm sunshine. He did not work. He made fun of the ants who worked day and night. The ants were collecting food for the long winter ahead.

         Then came the winter. The grasshopper did not have anything to eat. He remembered the ant his neighbour, who had collected food for the winter. He went to the ant and asked for some food.

The ant told the grasshopper that he should have worked and stored food for the winter. 

Now, grandmother stopped here. Think and say what might have happened next.

b) Draw what you have understood from the story:

22. Let's say the words :

Ants work hard.

They collect food to store.

Ants do not sit idle.

The grasshopper asked for some food.

c) Now, copy any two sentences about what ants do and what the grasshopper did:

ii) The grasshopper ___liked___ (like/liked) to spend time singing and dancing.

iii) The grasshopper did not have anything to eat when winter ___came___

27. Let's make new words by joining two words from the clouds below. You have found these words in the story. One is done for you:

hard + working = hardworking

sun + shine = sunshine

grass + hopper = grasshopper

any + one = anyone

28. Say who I am:

I am in 'ant'

But not in 'and'

I am in 'cat'

We play and study every day.

30. a) Let's read the following sentences:

The grasshopper likes to sing, but the ant does not like to sing.

The ant works hard, but the grasshopper does not work hard.

b) Now, work in pairs. Use the word 'but' to tell each other what you like to do and what you do not like to do. For example:

I like playing badminton, but I do not like playing tennis.

1.I like eating ice cream, 2.I like playing football, 3.I like watching cartoons,

but

I do not like drinking milk. I do not like running races. I do not like doing homework.
