I. Reading
Among officers and servants of Frederick the Great, The King of Prussia, there was a little page, whose name was Carl. He was very responsible and hard-working.

One morning the King wanted to send him on another errand but he saw the page sitting on his chair by the door and sleeping. The King got angry and wanted to wake the boy up and scold at him when suddenly he saw a piece of paper on the floor beside. It was a letter from Carl's mother who thanked him for wages he had sent her and asked the boy to be faithful to the King.

The King went to his room on the tiptoe, took 10 gold pieces, wrapped them into the letter and put them all into the boy's pocket. After a while he rang the bell loudly. The page came quickly into the room. He was frightened and ready to cry as he had found 10 gold pieces wrapped in his mother's letter and knew nothing about them. The King assured the boy that money in his pocket was a gift of fortune as a reward for his work and asked Carl to send this money to his mother with his compliments and promise to take care of her and her son.
