However, we only need a small amount of this compared to fruits and vegetables of which we need a lot. Healthy eating including ensuring our day diet contains fibre-rich foods.

Question 4

Read the text below

Once upon a time, an old man lived with his three sons in a village. All the three sons were hard workers. Still, none of them agreed with each other and quarrelled all the time. The old man tried a lot to unite them but he failed. While the villagers were surprised at their hard work and efforts, they also made fun of them because of their fights.

Months passed by and the old man fell sick. He talked to his sons to stay united, but none of them heeded his words. So, he decided to teach them a practical lesson so that they would shed off their differences and stay united.

The old man called all three of his sons. He told them, “I will give you a bundle of sticks. Separate each stick and you will have to break each stick into pieces of two. The fastest one to break the sticks will be rewarded”.

All his sons agreed, to do the task.

The old man gave them a bundle of 10 sticks to each and asked to break them into pieces. All of them broke the sticks into pieces within minutes.

And again they started to quarrel among themselves as who came first.

The old man said, “Dear sons, the game is not over. Now I will give you another bundle of sticks. You will have to break the sticks as a bundle, not as separate sticks”.

The sons agreed and began to break the bundle of sticks. Unfortunately, they could not break the bundle. They tried very hard but failed to complete the task. All of them failed to break the bundle.

The old man said, “Dear sons, see! You could easily break the single sticks into pieces, but you were not able to break the bundle! The sticks were the same. This shows that if you stay united, nobody can harm you. If you quarrel every time with each other, anyone can easily defeat you. I request you to stay united”.

The three sons understood the power of unity and promised their father that whatever problem they face, they would all stay together forever.

What is this life if, full of care,

We have no time to stand and stare. No time to stand beneath the boughs And stare as long as sheep or cows. No time to see, when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass. No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like stars at night. No time to turn at Beauty’s glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance. No time to wait till her mouth can

Enrich that smile her eyes began. A poor life this if, full of care,

We have no time to stand and stare.
