READING:
Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Goldilocks. She went for a walk through the forest. Soon, she saw a house. She knocked and nobody answered. Although nobody was home, she went in.
On the table in the kitchen, there were three bowls of soup and some dough.
“I’m hungry,” she thought.
She sought a spoon and tasted the soup from the first bowl.
"This soup is too hot!" she exclaimed.
So, she tasted the soup from the second bowl.
"This soup is too cold," she said
So she tasted the last bowl of soup.
"Yum, this soup is just right," she said happily and she ate it all.
After she had eaten enough, she decided that she was feeling a little tired. Even though nobody was home, she made a thorough search in the house to find a place to rest. She walked into the living room and she saw three chairs. Goldilocks sat on the first chair to rest her feet.
"This chair is too big!" she exclaimed.
So she sat on the second chair.
"This chair is too rough!" she cried.
So she tried the last and smallest chair.
"Awwww, this chair is just right," she said. But when she sat down to rest, it broke into pieces! It wasn’t made from the bough of a tough tree.
Goldilocks was very tired and was getting sick. “I have a cough so I ought to take a nap,” she thought, so she went upstairs to the bedroom. She went in the first bed, but it was too hard. Then, she went in the second bed, but it was too soft. Then, she went in the third bed and it was just right. Luckily, she brought the blanket that she had bought and fell asleep.
While she was sleeping, three bears came home.
"Someone has been eating my soup," growled the Papa bear.
"Someone's been eating my soup," said the Mama bear.
"Someone's been eating my soup and they ate it all!" cried the Baby bear.
Then, they walked into the living room.
"Someone has been sitting on my chair," growled the Papa bear.
"Someone's been sitting on my chair," said the Mama bear.
"Someone's been sitting on my chair and they broke it," cried the Baby bear.
They decided to look around and when they went upstairs to the bedroom, Papa bear yelled, "Someone has been sleeping in my bed,"
"Someone's been sleeping in my bed, too" said the Mama bear
"Someone's been sleeping in my bed and she's still there!" said Baby bear.
When Goldilocks heard the noise, she woke up and saw the three bears. She screamed, "Help!" and she jumped up and ran out of the room. Goldilocks ran down the stairs, opened the door, and ran away into the forest. She never returned.
The three bears fought because one of them left the door open.
