THE STORY OF A GREAT STORY
Two hundred years ago, there lived in Scotland a young man whose name was Alexander Selkirk. He was quarrelsome and unruly. He often created trouble among his neighbours.
For this reason, many people were glad when he ran away from home and went to sea. \"We hope that he will get what he deserves,\" they said.
He was big and strong and soon became a fine sailor. But he was still headstrong and ill-tempered; and he was often in trouble with the other sailors.
Once his ship was sailing in the great Pacific Ocean, It was four hundred miles from the coast of South America. Then something happened which Selkirk did not like. He became very disagreeable. He quarreled with the other sailors and even with the captain.
\"I would rather live alone on a deserted island than be a sailor on this ship,\" he said.
\"Very well,\" answered the captain. \"We shall put you ashore on the first island that we see.\"
\"Do so,\" said Selkirk. \"You cannot please me better.\"
The very next day, they came in sight of a little green island. There were groves of trees near the shore and high hills beyond them.
\"What is the name of this island?\" asked Selkirk.
\"Juan Fernandez,\"said the captain.
\"Set me on shore and leave me there. Give me a few common tools and some food and I will do well enough,\" said the sailor.
\"It shall be done,\" answered the captain.
So they filled a small boat with the things that he would need the most-an axe, a hoe, a kettle, and some other things. They also put in some bread and meat and other food, enough for several weeks.
Then four of the sailors rowed him to the shore and left him there.
Alexander Selkirk was all alone on the island. He began to see how foolish he had been; he thought how terrible it would be to live there without one friend, without one person to whom he could speak.
He called loudly to the sailors and to the captain. \"Oh, do not leave me here. Take me back and I will give you no more trouble.\"
But they would not listen to him. The ship sailed away and was soon lost to sight.
Then Selkirk set to work to make the best of things. He built him a little hut for shelter at night and in stormy weather. He planted a small garden. There were pigs and goats on the island and plenty of fish could be caught from the shore. So there was always plenty of
food. Sometimes, Selkirk saw ships sailing in the distance. He tried to make signals to them; he called as loudly as he could but he was neither seen nor heard, and the ships came no nearer.
\"If I ever have the good fortune to escape from this island,\" he said, \"I will be kind and obliging to everyone. I will try to make friends instead of enemies.\"
For four years and four months, he lived alone on the island. Then, to his great joy, a ship came near and anchored in the little harbour.
He made himself known and the captain willingly agreed to carry him back to his own country. When he reached Scotland, everybody was eager to hear him tell of his adventures and he soon found himself famous.
In England, there was then living a man whose name was Daniel Defoe. He was a writer of books. He had written many stories which people at that time liked to read.
When Daniel Defoe heard how Selkirk had lived alone on the island of Juan Fernandez, he said to himself: \"Here is something worth telling about. The story of Alexander Selkirk is very pleasing.\"
So he sat down and wrote a wonderful story, which he called \"The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe.\"
When Robinson Crusoe was eighteen years old, he ran away from his pleasant home and went to sea.
He soon found that a sailor\'s life is indeed a hard life. There is no time to play. Every day, there is much work to be done. Sometimes, there is great danger.
Robinson Crusoe sailed first on one ship and then on another. He visited many lands and saw many wonderful things.
One day, there was a great storm. The ship was driven about by the winds; it was wrecked. All the sailors were drowned but Robinson Crusoe.
He swam to an island that was not far away. It was a small island, and there was no one living on it. But there were birds in the woods and some wild goats on the hills.
For a long time Robinson Crusoe was all alone. He had only a dog and some cats to keep him company. Then he tamed a parrot and some goats.
He built a house of some sticks and vines. He sowed grain and baked bread. He made a boat for himself. He did a great many things. He was busy every day.
At last a ship happened to pass that way and Robinson was taken on board. He was glad to go back to England to see his home and his friends once more.
This is the story which Mr. Defoe wrote. Perhaps he would not have thought of it, had he not first heard the true story of Alexander

A Visit to a Zoo
A visit to a zoo is an interesting experience. Last Sunday I went to Delhi zoo with my parents. We went there by car. Delhi Zoo is near Purana Qila. My father bought the tickets and we entered the gate. There were ponds on both the sides of the road. The list of animals in Delhi zoo is quite long. It has animals and birds from around the different continents of the world such as Africa, Asia, Australia, America, and Europe. I saw some world famous animals and birds such as White Tiger, Royal Bengal Tiger, Lion, Black Buck, Indian Rhinoceros, Leopard, crocodile, Emu, Gaur, King Cobra, Giraffe, Elephant, African Elephant, etc. After going round the zoo, we came out and sat under a tree. We had food with us so we enjoyed it. Visiting zoo is an amazing experience.
