who did the home work
Patrick was an active boy who loved outdoor games like hockey and basketball. He was an enthusiastic player but somehow was not interested in studies. Because of his poor interest in studies he shirked work and was warned strictly by his teacher.
One day Patrick observed his cat playing with a doll. But when he looked at it closely, he found that it was a small man-elf (a supernatural being). He was wearing a woollen shirt, a tall hat and breeches.He was scared of a cat and needed help. He pleaded (requested) Patrick to save him and in return he promised to grant him a wish.
Patrick felt happy and called himself a fortunate one. He asked the elf to do his homework in return. Though the elf was not ready for it yet, he offered to kodo this for him for 35 days (one semester).
However, a problem arose when the elf told that he knew nothing of maths and history. He needed help to do these subjects.Patrick agreed and brought many books to read and consult. He sat next to elf and put in a hard toll to complete the work.
Exactly after 35 days when the semester was over, the elf went away quietly.Patrick scored grade ‘A’ in all the subjects.Everyone appreciated him. He became a very different person who was hardworking, generous and an exemplary boy.
Patrick thought it is elf who helped him score high but in reality, it was Patrick himself who did all the good and changed his score.PATRICK never did homework. “Too boring,” he said. He played hockey and basketball and Nintendo instead. His teachers told him, “Patrick! Do your homework or you won’t learn a thing.” And it’s true, sometimes he did feel like an ignoramus. But what could he do? He hated homework.
